Popis: Platinised Titania is emerging as a promising catalyst for its chemical stability, large surface area, and good electronic charge transfer. It is one of the most efficient materials and has been studied over past few decades for photocatalytic hydrogen generation. Photodeposition of Pt nanoparticles on TiO2 surface enhances trapping of photoexcited electrons and restricts recombination process. In this article we explored the influence of chloride ion formed during in-situ photocatalytic process, on photocatalytic hydrogen generation by scavenging holes.
