The formation of polyanions in aqueous media can produce a variety of structures in the solid state. Films were obtained through sol-gel method with sodium tungstate as precursor and dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride (DTAC) as structuring agent, after calcined at 700 °C in air. The films, structured as nanospheres, were composed mainly of triclinic sodium tetratungstate and monoclinic tungsten oxide. The cationic surfactant interacts in aqueous media with the precursor, affecting the obtained films' final morphology, without affecting their crystal structure. Their photocatalytic properties were also evaluated.</p> <p> </p>}, number={3}, journal={Revista Eletrônica Científica da UERGS }, author={Soares de Moura, Diego and Santos Garcia, Irene Teresinha}, year={2022}, month={dez.}, pages={218–227} }
