We addressed the above issues by employing microemulsion based ex situ co-catalyst loading on porous carbon nitrides as a superior method with about 40% higher HER activity compared to the usual in situ co-catalyst loading used in the majority of previous studies. In addition, for the first time, we introduced a large scale 1 m2 reactor for H2 production with 80 mL h−1 using this ex situ Pt loaded on porous carbon nitrides under natural sunlight conditions.en540 Chemie und zugeordnete WissenschaftenApplying thermo-destabilization of microemulsions as a new method for co-catalyst loading on mesoporous polymeric carbon nitride - towards large scale applicationsArticle2046-2069
