摘要：
Hexagonal tungsten trioxide (h-WO3) nano-rods of different sizes are prepared via hydrothermal synthesis using a capping agent of SnCl4·5H2O. The size of the synthesized WO3nanoparticles can be controlled by changing concentration of the capping agent SnCl4·5H2O alone. We also investigate microstructures and optical properties of the WO3nanorods and propose a synthesis mechanism for the nanorods. The photocatalytic activities of the h-WO3nanorods are evaluated by degradation of Rhodamine-B (RhB), revealing that these nanorods exhibit excellent photocatalytic properties. The cappi...
