Abstract: In this work, the hybrid carbon nanofibers (Cu2O/CNFs) containing cuprous oxide (Cu2O) nanoparticles were prepared by combination of electrospinning and carbonization treatments. The morphology, composition and microstructure of the Cu2O/CNFs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffractometer (XRD). Due to the synergistic effect between photocatalytic activity of Cu2O and excellent adsorption capacity of carbon nanofibers (CNFs), the obtained Cu2O/CNFs exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity for degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) and phenol. The possible mechanism for degradation of rhodamine B and phenol degradation were also discussed. The resultant hybrid carbon composites offer the significant advantages, such as low dosage, high catalytic activity, easy recycling and excellent stability.
