What Is the Morphology and Structure of Purple Tungsten Oxide?

The phase composition of violet tungsten is WO2.72 (W18 O49), which is a unique crystal structure, so it is used to produce fine tungsten powder and fine tungsten carbide powder. Violet tungsten is a different form of tungsten oxide. It has a unique crystal structure from other tungsten oxides (blue tungsten), and its properties are also quite different. The large particles of blue tungsten have sharp edges and corners, and are formed by agglomeration of small cubes. The surface is broken to varying degrees and covered with cracks. The morphology of violet tungsten is obviously different from the other three. The large particles are loose particle clusters composed of needle-like or rod-like grains. All tungsten oxide pellets have abundant cracks inside, among which the purple tungsten pellets are not only rich in cracks, but also the internal particles are needle-shaped or rod-shaped. The structure of violet tungsten particles has a large gap, which makes the bulk density low, which is beneficial to the infiltration of hydrogen and the escape of water vapor during the reduction process, so that the reduction not only starts from the surface, but also proceeds simultaneously inside. The particle shape of violet tungsten is rod-shaped, and the shape of other tungsten oxide particles is nearly spherical, and the particle size of violet tungsten particles is the largest. Violet tungsten phase composition is WO2.72 (W18 O49), purple tungsten oxide (VTO) powder has the largest mesopore volume, the smallest micropore volume, the narrowest pore size distribution, the smallest fractal dimension and the largest average pore size, It is beneficial to the production of ultra-fine tungsten powder by hydrogen reduction, but not conducive to the doping process. It is a unique crystal structure, so it is used to produce fine tungsten powder and fine tungsten carbide powder.
