Preparation of CdS photocatalyst and its performance of hydrogen production

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Cadmium sulfide photocatalyst was prepared by hydrothermal methods with one-step and two-step methods, respectively. Platinum was loaded on the surface of prepared photocatalysts and its optimal loading amount was examined. All the prepared photocatalysts were characterized by XRD, UV-Vis, XRF, SEM and TEM and their pohtocatalytic activity was evaluated by H2 evolution from water under visible light. It was found that the photocatalyst prepared by two-step showed markedly improved hydrogen production activity.
