Abstract

in this study we report the use of a self-contained proton conductor, an electrochromic film of PWA, as the coating material for an energy-efficient window. The coating was prepared by spray pyrolysis method. The solar transmittance of the window can vary reversibly between 78% to 8%. The diffusion coefficient of PWA in decoloration is 2.8 × 10−12cm2/sec based on the calculation from the cyclic voltammetric data.
