Ruthenium doped TiO2 fibers by electrospinning

Nano to sub-micron fibers of ruthenium doped titanium dioxide/poly(vinylacetate) hybrid have been prepared by electrospinning method. Pure ceramic metal oxide fibers were obtained by high temperature calcination of the organic–inorganic hybrid fibers. It is observed that the surface morphology and crystallinity of the fibers depend on the calcination temperature and ruthenium content.
