A series of polyethersulfone-TiO2 (PES/TiO2) film photocatalysts were prepared by a phase inversion technique and subsequently used in the photodegradation of methyl orange dye (MO). The photoactivity of the films increased with increasing TiO2 content up to 13 wt% (PT-13). The photodegradation of M...
