• Bio-Templating: An Emerging Synthetic Technique for Catalysts. A Review 

      Herrera-Beurnio, M. Carmen; Hidalgo-Carrillo, J.; Martín-Gómez, Juan; Martín-Gómez, Juan; Estévez, R.; Urbano, Francisco José; Marinas, Alberto (MDPI, 2021)
      In the last few years, researchers have focused their attention on the synthesis of new catalyst structures based on or inspired by nature. Biotemplating involves the transfer of biological structures to inorganic materials ...
    • Controlled photodeposition of Pt onto TiO2-g-C3N4 systems for photocatalytic hydrogen production 

      Herrera-Beurnio, M. Carmen; López Tenllado, Francisco Javier; Hidalgo-Carrillo, J.; Martín-Gómez, Juan; Estévez, R.; Castillo-Rodríguez, Miguel; Miguel, Gustavo de; Urbano, Francisco José; Marinas, Alberto (Elsevier, 2022)
      Platinum (0.5 wt. %) was photodeposited on g-C3N4-TiO2 systems using UV or Vis light. Different absorption by semiconductors seemed to somehow influence resulting platinum particle size and distribution. Thus, lower platinum ...
    • Glycerol photoreforming for photocatalytic hydrogen production on binary and ternary Pt-g-C3N4-TiO2 systems: a comparative study 

      Herrera-Beurnio, M. Carmen; López Tenllado, Francisco Javier; Hidalgo-Carrillo, J.; Martín-Gómez, Juan; Estévez, R.; Urbano, Francisco José; Marinas, Alberto (Elsevier, 2024)
      Photocatalytic hydrogen production using two sacrificial agents (triethanolamine and glycerol) was conducted on several binary (Pt/TiO2 and Pt/g-C3N4) and ternary systems (Pt on a heterojunction between TiO2 and g-C3N4 ...
    • Influence of sacrificial agent on Cu photodeposition over TiO2/MCH composites for photocatalytic hydrogen production 

      Martín-Gómez, Juan; Escamilla, Juan Carlos; Hidalgo-Carrillo, J.; López Tenllado, Francisco Javier; Estévez, R.; Herrera-Beurnio, M. Carmen; Castillo-Rodríguez, Miguel; Urbano, Francisco José; Marinas, Alberto (Elsevier, 2022)
      Titanium (ca. 11 wt%) was dispersed on a carbonaceous mesoporous support and modified with copper (ca. 5 wt%) photodeposited using either glycerol or methanol as the sacrificial agent ((Cu-TiO2/MCH_(Gly) and Cu-TiO2/MCH_(Met) ...
