Abstract

Mesoporous TiO₂/SiO₂ composite nanofibers with a diameter of 100–200 nm and silica shell thickness of 5–50 nm have been fabricated by a sol–gel combined two-capillary co-electrospinning method; the composite nanofibers exhibited selective photocatalytic activity based on the decomposition of Methylene Blue, Active Yellow and Disperse Red.
