Abstract
Pt nanoparticles have been embedded into layers of a titanium picolinate framework by a photodeposition method. TEM images show the embedded and adsorbed Pt nanoparticles in the space between the layers with size of c.a 1 nm. The obtained Pt loaded titanium picolinate framework functions as an efficient photocatalyst for hydrogen evolution from methanol/water solution upon irradiation at wavelength longer than 300 nm (159.3 μmol h?1/0.1 g TiPF catalyst).
