Films of multi-organic indicators, encapsulated in silica-titania hybrid matrix with CTAB, have been synthesized using sol-gel dip coating method. Two types of stable,dense and uniform matrices were annealed at a 150 degrees C within two time intervals 1 h and 2 h by using 0.1 M and 0.5 M indicator...
