Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adfm201470012-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>Materials based on gold nanoparticles supported on TiO₂ are extremely efficient photocatalysts for the production of H₂ from ethanol. On page 241, A. Corma and co‐workers achieve high production rates and selectivities (&gt;99.3%) under simulated solar light. By using this technology, a photocatalytic process yielding a gaseous stream composed of almost pure H₂ with the sun as the only energy source can be envisaged. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg405340mn" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
