What is Understanding Photocatalysts and TiO2 about?
The document discusses photocatalysis and photocatalysts. It defines a photocatalyst as a substance that facilitates chemical reactions through photoirradiation without being transformed itself. Photosynthesis is given as an example where chlorophyll acts as the photocatalyst. It then focuses on titanium dioxide, describing how Professor Akira Fujishima discovered its photocatalytic properties in 1968, finding it could split water into hydrogen and oxygen upon exposure to UV light. This discovery, known as
