The properties of thin anodic passive films potentiostatically formed (1 V I Ef s 5 V us see) on polycrystalline tungsten in aqueous H3P04, HzS04, HNOs and HCl04 solutions (pH z 1.3) were studied using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy at room temperature. The data were analysed with a transfer

Abstract
We have developed a method for characterization of ageing of electrochromic materials by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Electrochromic WO~3~ thin films have been electrochemically cycled in propionic acid electrolyte and probed by EIS and optical measurements. A very small amount of optical degradation was observed in both the bleached and coloured states. The samples exhibited a few hundred times higher impedance in the bleached state than in the coloured state. It was observed that, in the bleached state, impedance values at low frequencies increased significantly with increasing number of cycles.
