Abstract

In this study MnWO4 nanocrystals with different morphologies were synthesised by a simple hydrothermal method with MnCl2 · 4H2O and Na2WO4 · 2H2O as source materials. The products were characterised by X-ray powder diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy. The results reveal that pH value plays an important role in the morphology and phase of samples. A simple reaction mechanism for the formation of MnWO4 was presented. The photodegradation of acetone was employed as a probe reaction to test the photoactivities of the as-prepared samples.
