• volatilities of the solvents, along with the changing relative humidity, yielded both internally and externally porous PS membranes. At low relative humidity (2%), smooth surface morphologies of the fibers were observed, while at a higher humidity (22%, 42%, and 62%), internally and externally porous

• nanofibers were obtained. DMF, the less volatile solvent, promotes the formation of the internal pores. In contrast, the highly volatile THF promotes the surface pore formation in the presence of water vapor, which does not mix with hydrophobic PS [46]. 3.3.2 Temperature. The temperature has two opposing

• . The merits of porous nanofibers with a higher specific surface area lie in the higher lithium-ion flux across the interfaces and the larger contact area between the electrode and electrolyte [2][34][35]. Herein, sample A2 should have the best performances as the electrode of lithium-ion battery in

The photocatalytic capability of V-doped SrTiO3 porous nanofibers was evaluated through photodegrading methyl orange (MO) in aqueous solution under artificial UV–vis light. The results indicated that V

Furthermore, the excellent catalytic activity was maintained even after five cycle tests, indicating that they have outstanding photocatalytic endurance. It is suggested that the excellent photocatalytic performance of doped SrTiO3
