One of the potential treatments for bacterial wound infections is photodynamic therapy. WO3–x semiconductor materials can generate reactive oxygen species when exposed to light, which can inactivate bacteria. In this work, we improved their photocatalytic performance by doping WO3–x with Cu. The wound dressing was prepared by loading Cu–WO3–x into a highly biocompatible chitosan sponge. The composite sponge dressing showed significant inactivation of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, and in vitro toxicity assays on L929 cells demonstrated the biosafety of the dressing. Through in vivo wound healing trials, composite sponge dressings have been shown to accelerate wound healing, and this composite chitosan sponge can be possibly used for photodynamic therapy of bacterial wound infections.

To investigate the correlation between electrochemical performance and physicochemical properties, three types of 1D WO 3 nanostructures were fabricated by hydrothermal method using K 2 SO 4 , Na 2 SO 4 , and (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 as capping agents. Hexagonal phase was obtained with the assistant of Na 2 SO 4 and (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 , while monoclinic phase was developed using K 2 SO 4 as agent. WO 3 nanostructures prepared by (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 and Na 2 SO 4 exhibited superior specific capacitance (400 F/g and 388 F/g) relative to WO 3 prepared by K 2 SO 4 (259 F/g), suggesting hexagonal phase is more suitable for energy storage. The nanostructures prepared using Na 2 SO 4 exhibited inferior rate performance compared with those obtained by (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 due to low specific surface area and high crystallinity. The electrochemical performance demonstrated nanostructures prepared by (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 was surface-controlled whereas those using Na 2 SO 4 and K 2 SO 4 were battery-type material. These findings raise the prospects of developing tungsten oxide for energy storage. Graphical abstract

Pt-doped WO 3 materials have good hydrogen-sensing properties, which are widely used in the field of hydrogen sensing. In this paper, Sol-Gel method is used to prepare WO 3 /Pt sensing material and sensing characteristic to hydrogen is characterized by transmission optical fiber hydrogen sensing system fabricated at home. By optimizing the fabrication parameters including sol-gel viscosity, aging time, Pt:W moral ratio and layers of the sensing film, the sensitivity and repeatability of the film were greatly improved. The repeatability of the film is further improved by irradiating the film with an UV lamp. Experimental results show that by increasing the number of film layers from one to five (the thickness of the film is about 222 nm, and the content of Pt element is 13.47% by SEM test), the sensitivity increased by 1.666 times. The repeatability of the film can be improved by 3% through the irradiation of the ultraviolet lamp. The optimized WO 3 /Pt film was tested continuously for 12 times at 5% hydrogen concentration, and the zero drift was only 0.723%.

Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ), as one of the most important chemicals, is widely applied in many industries. Electrocatalytic oxygen reduction provides a safe and on-site method for H 2 O 2 synthesis. The research of transition metal oxides (TMOs) for H 2 O 2 synthesis is mainly focused on the modification of transition metal elements and graphene. Few studies directly control pure TMOs without changing supporting materials or introducing other elements. Here, we demonstrate for the first time a phase regulation strategy to develop highly selective and stable tungsten trioxide catalysts for H 2 O 2 generation through 2e − oxygen reduction reaction (2e − ORR). DFT calculations show that the kinetic energy barrier (0.08 eV) of the 2e − ORR pathway on the cubic tungsten trioxide (c-WO 3 ) surface is much lower than that of the 4e − ORR pathway (0.76 eV). As a result, a selectivity of 90 % and H 2 O 2 production rate of 179 mmol g cat −1 h −1 are achieved at 0.1 V vs RHE under alkaline conditions, outperforming all catalysts previously reported under the same conditions. Moreover, after continuous testing for more than 24 h at a constant potential of 0.1 V vs RHE, the H 2 O 2 generation rate has not been diminished, indicating an excellent stability of c-WO 3 in practical applications.

The La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3−δ (LSCF)–WO3 semiconductor composite was applied as an electrolyte for low-temperature solid oxide fuel cells (LTSOFCs). The study results revealed that the fuel cell could output a maximum power density (Pmax) of 812 mW cm−2 when the weight ratio of LSCF to WO3 was 8 : 2 (8LSCF–2WO3), and its open-circuit voltage (OCV) was higher than 1.0 V. This indicated that there was no short circuit problem in this fuel cell device and 80 wt% LSCF existed in the electrolyte layer. This was mainly due to the suppressed electronic conductivity and increased ionic conductivity of the composite as compared with LSCF due to the introduction of the WO3 wide band semiconductor. The oxygen ionic conductivity of the 8LSCF–2WO3 electrolyte was 0.337 S cm−1, which is much higher than that of the pure LSCF material. According to the XPS analysis results, a higher oxygen vacancy content at the heterointerface between LSCF and WO3 contributed to the increased ionic conductivity.

The heterostructured NiWO 4 /WO 3 nanotubes (Ni/W NTs) were synthesized by using a facile self-assembly method on the sacrificial polystyrene (PS) nanofibers templates. Then, the Pt-decorated NiWO 4 /WO 3 (Pt@Ni/W) composite NTs were obtained through using an ultrasonic mixing method. The experimental results display that the order of gas-sensing performance is Pt@Ni/W>Ni/W>WO 3 . The 2wt.%Pt@Ni/W-5 NTs indicate the supreme acetone-sensing response ( R air / R gas =58.4 at 100×10 −6 ) at 375 °C, which is 10.6 and 1.53 times that of the WO 3 and NiWO 4 /WO 3 NTs, respectively. Additionally, the 2wt.%Pt@Ni/W-5 NTs also exhibit the dramatically high selectivity toward acetone against ethanol, methanal, methanol, NH 3 and toluene. The Pt-decorated Ni/W NTs show the excellent responsivity and stability toward acetone, which is ascribed to the construction of heterostructured NiWO 4 /WO 3 and the spill-over effect of Pt nanoparticles.

Photocatalytic nitrogen fixation from air directly under sunlight can contribute significantly to carbon neutralization. It is an ideal pathway to replace the industrial Haber Bosch process in future. A Fe-doped layered WO 3 photocatalyst containing oxygen vacancies was developed which can fix nitrogen from air directly under sunlight at atmospheric pressure. The iron doping enhances the transport efficiency of photogenerated electrons. The photocatalytic efficiency is around 4 times higher than that of pure WO 3 . The optium nitrogen fixation conditions were examined by orthogonal experiments and its nitrogen fixation performance could reach up to 477 μg·g cat −1 ·h −1 under sunlight. In addition, the process of nitrogen fixation was detected by situ infrared, which confirmed the reliability of nitrogen fixation. Also, modeling on the interactions between light and the photocatalyst was carried out to study the distribution of surface charge and validate the light absorption of the photocatalyst. This work provides a simple and cheap strategy for photocatalytic nitrogen fixation from air under mild conditions.

The production of a large number of metal oxide semiconductor materials is more for design needs, while theoretical exploration is relatively less concerned. In this work, WO 3 nanoparticles were prepared by the tungstic acid thermolysis method, and the catalysts of Pt and Ru were loaded on the surface of nanoparticles with a wet impregnation method. As expected, the sensitive responses were enhanced significantly with the additional loading of Pt, which revealed that bimetallic loading could achieve better properties with a smaller loaded amount than single metal. According to the power-law response to oxygen and H 2 -TPR results, the sensitization mechanism of noble metals loaded WO 3 to acetone as the typical VOCs was investigated. The results showed that the sensing processes were dominated by oxygen adsorption behavior and there was no difference with the loading of Ru. Furthermore, the power-law coefficient n became smaller with Pt loading. It is proposed that oxygen adsorbates on the surface become more active due to Pt. We would like to propose further a perspective, i.e., polymetallic loading that utilizes the properties of different metals to achieve synergism.

Nb-doped WO 3 films were prepared on FTO substrates by a facile sol–gel dip coating method. The influence of Nb doping on the microstructure and electrochromic characteristics of the films have been explored. The results indicate that the pure WO 3 film can achieve a synchronizing modulation of visible and near-infrared light bands by suppling voltage. However, the Nb-doped WO 3 films exhibit an ability of independent and selective transmittance modulation in both bands. Moreover, the Nb-doped WO 3 films undergo two electrochromic processes at different voltages, which are local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) electrochromic process and electrochemical redox electrochromic process, respectively. These two electrochromic processes exhibit a unique photoelectric conversion behavior, that is, the reversible “bleached and warm” - “bleached and cool” - “colored and cool” modes. Additionally, with the increase of Nb doping content, the LSPR electrochromic effect becomes stronger. The high LSPR enhances the electrochemical redox electrochromic performance of the Nb-doped WO 3 films, enabling them to exhibit better electrochromic performance in the visible and near-infrared bands.

The design of efficient and stable photocatalysts for the removal of heavy metals in the environment has become a research hotspot. Here, a composite photocatalyst with three-dimensional In 2 S 3 microspheres supported by WO 3 nanoparticles was synthesized for the photoreduction of Cr(VI) for the first time. The constructed composite catalyst has a direct Z-scheme electron transport mechanism without any precious metals (Au, Pt, and Ag), quantum dots (TiO 2 QDs) or carbon materials (Graphene) as electronic media. Constructing a direct Z-scheme WO 3 /In 2 S 3 photocatalyst can greatly retain the reduction and oxidation reaction sites on the surface of the heterojunction and accelerate the reduction reaction. Under visible light irradiation, it greatly promotes the photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI), which is 67.7 times and 3.6 times the reduction rates of WO 3 and In 2 S 3 , respectively. The favorable photocatalytic performance of WO 3 /In 2 S 3 should be attributed to the effective interfacial contact between the semiconductors in the Z-scheme system, thereby realizing effective electron transfer and charge separation. In addition, the stability of WO 3 /In 2 S 3 was studied, and a possible mechanism in the photoreduction process of Cr(VI) was proposed.

ABSTRACT In order to avoid the formation of η phase (W 6 Co 6 C or W 3 Co 3 C) that adversely affects the sintering process and its products in the preparation process of ultra-fine WC-Co powder, a technical route of pre-reduction of WO 3 –Co 3 O 4 to WO 2 –Co and then deep reduction carbonization to WC-Co powder has been proposed. This study mainly investigates the influence of gas partial pressure on the pre-reduction process of WO 3 –Co 3 O 4 under a mixed atmosphere of H 2 –C 2 H 4 –Ar at 600 °C and establishes the kinetic equations of pre-reduction and carbon evolution. The results indicate that increasing the partial pressure of hydrogen is conducive to the rapid and complete conversion of WO 3 to WO 2 . High carbon content can be generated by the deposition of C 2 H 4 , and it hinders the diffusion of the reducing gas; WO 3 still cannot be completely reduced to WO 2 as the partial pressure of C 2 H 4 increases to 60%. For the carbon evolution of C 2 H 4 , the carbon amount is positively related to the H 2 partial pressure, but it shows the highest amount and evolution rate when the ethylene partial pressure is 20%. Based on the reduction rate curves of WO 3 and carbon evolution rate curves of C 2 H 4 , the rate equations of pre-reduction and carbon evolution of WO 3 –Co 3 O 4 system at 600 °C are established. The pre-reduction reaction belongs to the first-order reaction, and its equation is expressed as follows: r = − d w WO 3 d t = 9 ± 0.15 × 1 0 − 2 P H 2 0.44 P C 2 H 4 0.57 The carbon deposition rate equation of C 2 H 4 can be expressed as follows: r ' = d c C d t = r f − r b ≅ 7.35 × 1 0 − 2 × P C 2 H 4 0.31

The design and preparation of new high-energy composite DAP-4/Al is very important for the study of composite solid propellants. In this work, the combustion properties and reaction mechanism of DAP-4/Al composites doped with WO3 nanoparticles were studied. DAP-4/Al composites were prepared by different mass ratios. The combustion state, combustion time, pressure, pressurization rate and flame temperature of DAP-4/Al/WO3 with different mass ratios were monitored. The results show that the combustion performance of DAP-4/Al can be significantly improved under the catalysis of WO3. Compared with DAP-4/Al-5, the average combustion time of DAP-4/Al/W-4 is significantly reduced by ~ 70 ms, the average combustion pressure is increased by 654 KPa, and the average pressurization rate is increased by 0.22 MPa·s−1. Under the catalysis of WO3, the activated substances can react rapidly with H2dabco2+ and NH+ to produce CO2, CO, N2 and H2O. When the mass ratio is 20:80:2, the average maximum combustion heat of DAP-4/Al/W-4 is 8474 J/g, which is higher than 493 J/g of DAP-4/Al-5. The reaction mechanism of WO3 catalyzed DAP-4/Al system was further analyzed by TG-MS and XPS. This work provides a new idea for the future application of DAP-4/Al composites in solid propellants.
