Abstract:A hydrothermal method was used to synthesise WO3 nanotubes, which were analysed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, and UV–Vis spectroscopy for morphological, structural, and optical properties. TEM revealed nanotubes several micrometers long with a diameter of 10–15 nm. These nanotubes effectively removed Rhodamine B (RhB) and Cr(VI) under visible light. The high photocatalytic efficiency of obtained WO3 material was attributed to the large surface area provided by th… Show more
