title: Effect of Ionic Liquids on Synthesis of Ag/TiO2 Catalyst in Water Electrolysis.
abstract: Effective Ag/TiO2 catalyst was synthesized using ionic liquids in water electrolysis. Silver was impregnated on TiO2 particles with various ionic liquids to examine the electrocatalytic activity in acid solution. Among the ionic liquids, [Bmim][CF3SO3] was most effective to prepare Ag/TiO2 particle in cyclic voltammograms. The current density over the sample was higher than 0.02 A/cm2. Furthermore, the catalyst synthesized using TiO2 particle prepared using binary ionic liquid (Ag/TiO2-IL) showed better electocatalytic activity, 0.023 A/cm2, under identical conditions.
