Nanofiber-Membrane-Supported TiO2 as a Catalyst for Oxidation of Benzene to Phenol

We applied a simple, low-cost design of glass capillary microreactor for the catalytic oxidation of benzene to phenol at ambient conditions. Polyvinylchloride-nanofiber-membrane-supported titania nanoparticle (TiO2-PVC) as catalyst and in situ production of hydroxyl radicals as oxidant. The reaction...
