Abstract
The addition of small amount of lead oxide (less than 0.1 wt%) to TiO2 was effective for improving the photocatalytic activity of H2 production from aqueous methanol. By the addition of Pb2O3 to TiO2, the characteristic ability of photoassisted H2 production was observed under irradiation whose wavelength was longer than 420 nm and was appeared accompanied with the improvement of the photocatalytic activity.Keywords
