Abstract
This study describes the synthesis of TiO<sub>2</sub>/WO<sub>3</sub> composite systems with a varying concentration of WO<sub>3</sub> by a glucose-template assisted method and demonstrates their round-the-clock photoactivity performance towards the degradation of methanol (MeOH) under illumination and dark conditions.
