The anodic oxidation of tungsten in nitrate melts and the electrochromic properties of the resulting oxide layers were studied. Optimum conditions for the formation of WO/sub 3/ oxide films having satisfactory electrochromic characteristics were established. Anodic oxide layers on tungsten were shown to have high stability in sulfuric acid solutions, and guarantee at least 10/sup 6/ color changes.
