PREPARATION OF POLYMER OPTICAL FIBER AND WATER PURIFICATION

摘要

In this study, we fabricated a device that can be used for water purification by combining a light leakage type polymer optical fiber with a photocatalyst. The light leakage type fiber was prepared by adding a dispersant to the core of the fiber. The composite of titanium oxide was composited by three kinds of methods using application of titanium oxide paste, dip coating, and adhesive. The photocatalytic decomposition activity of methylene blue was highest in the device using the adhesive.
