Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A series of BiWO photocatalysts were synthesized by a surfactant-assisted hydrothermal method. The products were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV–vis-near-IR diffuse reflectance spectra (UV–Vis), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area measurement. XRD results showed that the BiWO samples possessed pure monoclinic phase. The surfactant, especially SDBS addition would greatly affect the physical and chemical properties of BiWO. The average crystalline size of BWO-SBDS is rather smaller than that of BWO-None photocatalyst. The UV–Vis and BET results indicated that the BWO-SBDS has a narrower band gap energy and a larger surface area than BWO-CTAB and BWO-None products. The photocatalytic activities of as-prepared samples were evaluated by the degradation of methylene blue (MB) in an aqueous solution. The SDBS-assisted BiWO product had a much higher photocatalytic activity than the other two BiWO products in our photocatalytic system. The degradation percentage was about 97.0% with the reaction time at 120 min for BWO-SBDS sample. The improvement reason by SDBS adding was also discussed.
