Tungsten trioxide nanopowder applying for ceramic microsphere may be obtained by calcining pyrochlore-type tungsten trioxide (WO3?0.5H2O) with high purity. It is worth to note that the WO3?0.5H2O may be a feasible direction for further development of tungsten smelting. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the preparation method of WO3?0.5H2O. Under hydrothermal conditions, ultrafine pyrochlore-type tungsten trioxide powders may be prepared directly from sodium tungstate solution using pure tungsten trioxide (WO3) as an additive. The results showed that the…
