Facile template free method for textural property modulation that enhances adsorption and photocatalytic activity of aperiodic titania supported silica materials

- Pore modulation of titania-silica was achieved using aprotic co-solvents.
- Dark adsorption capacities of Rhodamine B were dependent on the pore volume.
- Photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B was found to depend on pore diameter.
