Silver tungstate is an inorganic tungstate with the chemical formula Ag2WO4. It has been applied in various fields such as photoluminescence, antibacterial action, ozone gas sensors and humidity sensors.[2][3] It is also used in the electronic and chemical industries, and also used in proteomics research.[4]

Phases

[edit]

Silver tungstate occurs in three polymorphic phases: orthorhombic (α), hexagonal (β) and cubic (γ).[2] α-silver tungstate is thermodynamically stable, while β- and γ-silver tungstate are metastable.[5]

Synthesis

[edit]

Silver tungstate is synthesised through the following reaction between silver nitrate and sodium tungstate, producing sodium nitrate as a byproduct:[2]
