Rod-shaped mesoporous titanosilicate composites (RMTSs) with controllable aspect ratios (ARs) were fabricated using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) at a continuous stirring rate, resulting in ARs ranging from 1 to 5. Slowing the stirring rate or increasing the concentration of CTAB mainly impacted the length growth, whereas NH4OH affected the width growth. Photocatalytic activity studies revealed that the length of RMTSs played a more significant role than the width at lower ARs in their photocatalytic activity.
