title: Photocatalytic reduction of CO2 with H2O: significant enhancement of the activity of Pt-TiO2 in CH4 formation by addition of MgO.
abstract: Photocatalytic activity in the reduction of CO(2) with H(2)O to CH(4) was significantly enhanced by simply adding MgO to TiO(2) loaded with Pt. A positive correlation between CH(4) formation activity and basicity was observed. The interface between TiO(2), Pt and MgO in the trinary nanocomposite played a crucial role in CO(2) photocatalytic reduction.
