Abstract

In this study, WO₃ nanoparticles with hierarchical structures are prepared by a simple hydrothermal method using diammonium hydrogen citrate (C₆H₁₄N₂O₇) as an additive, and the effects of reaction temperature and addition of C₆H₁₄N₂O₇ on their morphology are investigated in detail. The physical properties and morphology of the prepared WO₃ materials are analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction , transmission electron microscopy, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller method, and a possible growth mechanism is proposed. The results show that C₆H₁₄N₂O₇ is adsorbed on the edges of the nanosheets and inhibits their anisotropic growth. In addition, based on this material, sensors are self-assembled for detecting the decomposition products of SF₆, and the gas-sensitive properties of the material are investigated. The experimental results show that the sensors based on WO₃ with hierarchical structures are highly sensitive to H₂S and exhibit a low operating temperature. This indicates that such sensors can be effectively used to detect the main decomposition products of SF₆.
