    The Dalian Institute of Chemicals of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has recently made new progress
    in the research of photocatalytic hydrogen production on titanium dioxide surfaces.
    The results were published in the latest issue of the American Chemical Society
    .

    It is understood that methanol can improve the hydrogen production efficiency of titanium dioxide photocatalytic water splitting, and methanol itself can also photocatalyze hydrogen
    production.
    Anatase is one of three minerals composed of titanium dioxide, the other two being rutile and slab titanite
    .
    At present, scientists generally believe that the photocatalytic hydrogen production efficiency on the surface of anatase is higher than that on the rutile surface, but its hydrogen production reaction mechanism is still not fully understood
    .
    If the hydrogen production mechanism of different surfaces of titanium dioxide can be understood at the molecular level, it can provide new ideas
    for the development of high-efficiency catalysts.
