Near-infrared Shielding Material: CsxWO3-ZnO Composite

As a new type of functional material for producing near-infrared shielding material, CsxWO3-ZnO composite is designed to promote the practical applications of CsxWO3. You know, cesium tungsten bronze (CsxWO3) is a promising candidate for manufacturing near-infrared shielding materials on windows of buildings and automobiles. However, the near-infrared shielding ability of CsxWO3 easily deteriorates in hot humid and alkaline environments, which hinders further applications of CsxWO3.

In this regard, the experts proposed a novel core-shell structure of CsxWO3-ZnO composite, which exhibited high near-infrared shielding performance with excellent stability. In hot humid environment, CsxWO3-ZnO composite nanoparticles kept their outstanding near-infrared shielding ability after 150 days while uncoated CsxWO3 nanoparticles showed an evident deterioration in just 1 day. Moreover, the CsxWO3-ZnO core-shell structure also exhibits excellent stability in alkaline environment. The good protection of the uniform, continuous and compact ZnO shells played an important role on enhancing the stabilities of CsxWO3 nanoparticles. In a word, it provides a novel route for promoting the practical applications of CsxWO3 near infrared shielding materials.
