Hexagonal tungsten oxide nanorods have been synthesized by hydrothermal strategy using Na2WO4·2H2O as tungsten source, aniline and sulfate sodium as structure-directing templates. Techniques X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy have been used to characterize the structure, morphology and composition of the nanorods. The h-WO3 nanorods are up to 5 μm in length, and 50–70 nm in diameter.
