Electrospun copper based composite nanofibers were synthesized using the copper acetate/polyvinyl alcohol/water solution as starting material. Synthesized composite nanofibers were sintered at 500 °C to obtain CuOnanofibers. XRD, FTIR and XPS techniques were used to confirm the presence of pure CuO...
