Optimization of electrospun TiO2/CuO composite nanofibers shows that TiO2/CuO composite nanofibers with 6 mol.% Cu, calcined at 450 °C for 45 min, exhibited the highest H2 generation from 10% (v/v) methanol aqueous solution. The significance of balance and synergy among the essential physicochemical...
