Selective dual-purpose photocatalysis for simultaneous H2 evolution and mineralization of organic compounds enabled by a Cr2O3 barrier layer coated on Rh/SrTiO3

Dual-functional photocatalysis for H2 evolution with the simultaneous mineralization of 4-chlorophenol was achieved under de-aerated conditions using a Cr2O3/Rh/SrTiO3 photocatalyst which has Rh nanoparticles covered with a thin Cr2O3 barrier layer to selectively control and maximize the dual-functi...

Description
Summary:Dual-functional photocatalysis for H2 evolution with the simultaneous mineralization of 4-chlorophenol was achieved under de-aerated conditions using a Cr2O3/Rh/SrTiO3 photocatalyst which has Rh nanoparticles covered with a thin Cr2O3 barrier layer to selectively control and maximize the dual-functional photocatalytic activity.
