| Research Abstract |
From the results of electrochemical analysis, it become clear that catalytic reaction between polysulfide ion and fullerenes and oxygen was progress at the water - organic solvents interface. As the results, polysulfide ion (by products of photo catalytic reactions) was successfully changed into elemental sulfur and/or fullerenes-sulfur compounds. Moreover, polysulfide ion can be changed into industrial materials, such as polysulfide rubber which has high resistance properties. Synthesized elemental sulfur can be changed into hydrogen sulfide, which is the origin of photo catalytic reaction. Thus, environmental friendly hydrogen generation system by using sulfur can be constructed.
