Problems solved by technology

[0007] The above-mentioned electrochromic material preparation methods are mainly magnetron sputtering and spin coating. The advantages are that the prepared film particles are relatively uniform, the light transmittance is good, and the discoloration efficiency is good. However, its defects are also obvious, and the preparation cost of the material is expensive. The area of ​​the produced film is not easy to enlarge, the preparation requirements are high, and the equipment is expensive, etc.

[0041] The preparation method of the above-mentioned tungsten trioxide film is basically characterized in that it comprises the following specific processes:

[0042] (1) Clean the substrate, ultrasonically clean it in lye and acetone, clean it with deionized water, dry it, and set it aside.

[0043] (2) React tungsten powder with hydrogen peroxide for 5-7 hours, filter, then add absolute ethanol and glacial acetic acid to the filtrate, and stir evenly.

[0044] (3) Reflux at 50-60°C for 5-6 hours through a cooling reflux device to obtain uniform and transparent WO 3 Sol.

[0045] (4) the WO obtained above 3 The sol was distilled under reduced pressure in a rotary evaporator at 50-60°C to concentrate the sol concentration.

[0046] (5) Immerse the substrate in (1) in the above-mentioned sol for about 3 minutes, and the film pulls the substrate vertically upward at a speed of 2-3 cm / min.

[0047] (6) Repeat step (5) twice at an interval of 5 minutes, and then air dry natura...

[0050] (1) Clean the FTO conductive glass. (2) React 6.5g of 99.9% tungsten powder with a particle size below 1000nm and 40ml of 30% analytically pure hydrogen peroxide for 5-7 hours, filter, and then add 10.0ml of analytically pure anhydrous ethanol and analytically pure Glacial acetic acid 40.0ml, stir evenly. (3) The peroxypolytungstic acid generated in step (2) is more fully acetylated by cooling and refluxing. The reflux time is an important factor affecting the sol concentration. The reflux time is 6-10 hours to obtain tungsten trioxide sol. (4) Use a rotary evaporator to distill and concentrate the sol under reduced pressure to increase the concentration of the sol, and the vacuum degree of the decompression device is 0.07-0.09Mpa. (5) Place the substrate vertically on the WO obtained in (4) 3 In the sol, the immersion time is about 3 minutes, so that it is fully in contact with the sol, and the substrate is pulled up at a speed of 2-3cm / min evenly and vertically.
