摘要
Toluene is a typical volatile organic compound (VOC), which is harmful to human. The novel mesoporous TiO2 composite fibers with optimal SiO2 content were fabricated via electrospinning the relevant gel precursor, and were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, TG-DTA, UV-vis, and BET surface analysis, respectively. Through photocatalytic degradation of gaseous toluene with these nano structured fibrous catalysts, it has shown that 10% silica doped TiO2 nanofibers displayed the highest degradation rate among a lot of titania fibers with different silica content, and whose reaction rate is two-fold enhancement than Degussa P25. What is more, it is easy to fix and recycle nanofibrous catalysts. Furthermore, the degradation pathway of cleaning toluene has been verified based on GC-MS detection.
