1,3,5-Triazine and dithienothiophene-based conjugated polymers for highly effective photocatalytic hydrogen evolution

Abstract

Conjugated micropore polymers (CMPs) have emerged as a class of promising catalysts for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. In this report, we described our development of two triazine- and dithienothiophene-based CMP photocatalysts,...

Green and sustainable synthesis of TPD-based donor–acceptor-type conjugated polymer photocatalysts for hydrogen production under visible light

“…The short photoluminescence lifetimes of the three polymers indicate a faster electron transfer rate to the surface, which should be favourable for the HER. 28,49,[53][54][55] As shown in Fig. 6b, TPDBDT NPs exhibited the smallest Nyquist radius, indicating that they had the highest quality of the interface among the three TPD-based polymers, which is in favour of charge transport at the NP interface.…”
