Ag2WO4

Silver tungstate (Ag2WO4) is an inorganic ceramic compound combining silver and tungstate ions, belonging to the class of metal tungstate materials. It is primarily investigated as a photocatalytic material in environmental remediation and water treatment applications, where its light-responsive properties enable degradation of organic pollutants and microbial disinfection. This compound is less common in traditional structural applications than conventional ceramics but offers potential advantages in catalytic systems due to its electronic band structure, making it of particular interest to researchers developing sustainable water purification and air-cleaning technologies as an alternative to titanium dioxide-based catalysts.
