• composite delivered similar three-dimensional interwoven structures that comprised the composite nanotubes. The Ag2O-NP/TiO2-NT and H3PW12O40/TiO2 composites exhibited excellent photocatalytic performances under UV light irradiation, while the g-C3N4/TiO2-NT and Bi2WO6/TiO2-NT composites had a wider light

• response to the visible spectral region. Besides, under visible light irradiation, Bi2WO6/TiO2-NT composites show better photocatalytic degradation activities than that of g-C3N4/TiO2-NT composites. Based on these cellulose-derived nanocomposites, structure–activity relationships between photocatalytic
