Photocatalytic hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) production has attracted considerable attention as a renewable and environment-friendly method to replace other traditional production techniques. The performance of H 2 O 2 production remains limited by the inertness of graphitic carbon nitride (CN) towards the adsorption and activation of O 2 . In this work, a photocatalyst comprising of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-modified CN with supporting Au co-catalyst (Au/β-CD-CN) has been utilized for effective H 2 O 2 production under visible light irradiation. The static contact angle measurement suggested that β-CD modification increased the hydrophobicity of the CN photocatalyst as well as its affinity to oxygen gas, leading to an increase in H 2 O 2 production. The rate of H 2 O 2 production reached more than 0.1 mM/h under visible-light irradiation. The electron spin resonance spectra indicated that H 2 O 2 was directly formed via a 2-electron oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) over the Au/β-CD-CN photocatalyst.
