In this process, WO3 nanoparticles with sizes between 10nm and 20 nm were prepared and characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) techniques. WO3 nanoparticles are used to modify polysiloxane surface. The WO3 coated polysiloxane surface showed a very high-water contact angle of 158°. %U https://www.ajnanomat.com/article_131087_e1dc25b360d519bde7f9ce61efbc4edc.pdf
