The researchers improved the core structure of WO3 by using the modification methods of layer coating, dingalization with other nanomaterial or molecules. While these modifications often alter electrochemical performance. So, the researchers studied the effects and outcomes of such modifications incorporated in WO3 structures using electrochemical methods, sensing behavior, and morphological examination. Apart from any change in supercapacitance performance, one goal for such modifications was to improve robustness of the WO3 structures. So, after detailed electrochemical analyses of WO3 structures, the researchers performed a study regarding the feasibility of the WO3 based sensors for food safety applications based on electrochemical detection of hazardous dyes in food. And the results suggested the viability of WO3 structures for food safety applications.
