Abstract
Self-standing photocatalytic materials based on transition-metal decorated electrospun fiber mat have attracted considerable attention for photodegradation of toxic refractory organic pollutants in the environment. In this study, poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone)/copper(II) nitrate fibers (Cu/PVP-F) were prepared by electrospinning of PVP/Cu(NO3)2 solution followed by crosslinking using microwave-induced argon plasma (MAP) to produce Cu/Cu2O composites...
