Application
- Heterojunction photocatalysts for hydrogen evolution and benzyl alcohol oxidation: Wang et al. developed phosphotungstic acid clusters on Znln2S4 nanoflowers, demonstrating their efficiency as molecular-scale S-scheme heterojunctions for simultaneous hydrogen evolution and benzyl alcohol oxidation, indicating a promising application in renewable energy and organic synthesis technologies (Wang et al., 2024).
- Photoelectrocatalytic alcohol oxidation: Gong et al. enhanced the performance of a BiVO(4) photoanode in bicarbonate electrolyte for efficient photoelectrocatalytic oxidation of alcohols including benzyl alcohol, showing potential for clean energy production and organic pollutant degradation (Gong et al., 2024).
