Abstract: Activated carbon fiber (ACF)-Ag -TiO2 nanofiber composite materials were prepared using hydrothermal method combining with solgel method. The samples were analyzed by SEM, TEM and EDS. Taking methylene orange degradation as a model reaction, the photocatalytic property of the material was investigated. The results indicate that the length of nanofibers is between 4 and 8 μm, and the diameter is between 5 and 50 nm. As the mass fraction of element Ag doping in the prepared materials is 0.5%, the photocatalysis efficiency was at the maximum. The photocatalysis efficiency on the methylene orange is up to 95 % after lighting for 30 min.

Key words: activated carbon fiber; nano-fiber; photocatalytic property
