Abstract: | Aerosol assisted chemical vapour deposition of polyoxotungstate precursors [n-Bu4N]2[W6O19] and [n-Bu4N]4H3[PW11O39] produces films of WO(3 - x) and WO3 on glass substrates; the WO3 films show significant photocatalytic decomposition of a test organic pollutant--stearic acid--when irradiated with either 254 or 365 nm radiation |
