For the use of green hydrogen energy,it is crucial to have efficient photocatalytic activity for hydrogen generation by water reforming of methanol under mild conditions.Much attention has been paid to g-C3N4 as a promising photocatalyst for the generation of hydrogen.To improve the separation of pho-togenerated charge,porous nanosheet g-C3N4 was modified with Pt nanoclusters(Pt/g-C3N4)through impregnation and following photo-induced reduction.This catalyst showed excellent photocatalytic activity of water reforming of methanol for hydrogen production with a 17.12 mmol·g-1·h-1 rate at room temperature,which was 311 times higher than that of the unmodified g-C3N4.The strong interactions of Pt-N in Pt/g-C3N4 constructed effective electron transfer channels to promote the separation of photo-generated electrons and holes effectively.In addition,in-situ infrared spectroscopy was used to inves-tigate the intermediates of the hydrogen production reaction,which proved that methanol and water eventually turn into H2 and CO2 via formaldehyde and formate.This study provides insights for un-derstanding the photocatalytic hydrogen production in the water reforming of methanol.
