Abstract

Hexagonally mesostructured 12-phosphotungstic acid (PWA) thin films with both large pore size and hierarchical structures have been successfully prepared by using triblock copolymer templates for the first time. The films is composed by three kind of structures; PWA Keggin anion, monoclinic crystal structure consisting of PWA Keggin anion and organic part (hydrophilic component) of block copolymers, and the hexagonal mesostructure of self-arrayed PWA and block copolymers. The calcined PWA films show better electrochemical properties such as a faster faradic processes and larger specific capacity than normal P WA clusters.
