Integration of Photothermal Effect and Heat Insulation to Efficiently Reduce Reaction Temperature of CO2 Hydrogenation

The photothermal effect is applied in CO2 hydrogenation to reduce the reaction temperature under illumination by encapsulating Pt nanocubes and Au nanocages into a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF‐8). Under illumination, the heat generated by the photothermal effect of Au nanocages is mainly insu...

Description
Summary:The photothermal effect is applied in CO2 hydrogenation to reduce the reaction temperature under illumination by encapsulating Pt nanocubes and Au nanocages into a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF‐8). Under illumination, the heat generated by the photothermal effect of Au nanocages is mainly insulated in the ZIF‐8 to form a localized high‐temperature region, thereby improving the catalytic activity of Pt nanocubes.
