Abstract
Abstract Alumina-supported mixed semiconductor catalyst, ZnS·CdS/Al2O3, showed a significant rate of hydrogen generation from water under UV irradiation without an assistance of any noble metals. Singly supported catalyst, ZnS/Al2O3 or CdS/Al2O3, showed, however, less activity for photogeneration of hydrogen. The activity was not improved by physical mixture of ZnS/Al2O3 and CdS/Al2O3 although the amount of ZnS and CdS were the same as those in the ZnS·CdS/Al2O3 catalyst. This indicates that the intimate contacts between ZnS and CdS particles are necessary to photogeneration of hydrogen.
