Study of UV-Visible and near infrared absorption CsXWO3/polypyrrole nanocomposite

ABSTRACT

Cs_xWO₃ nanoparticles were successfully synthesised via solvothermal and its nanocomposites with polypyrrole and different thicknesses were prepared via interfacial polymerisation. The UV-Visible and near-infrared (UV-Vis-NIR) of Cs_xWO₃ products were studied. The Cs_xWO₃ and its nanocomposites characterised by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX) and FTIR. The results indicated that the NIR absorption property of Cs_0.3WO_2.7 is better than CsWO₃ and increased by increasing thicknesses.
