Abstract The relative photocatalytic activity of a series of lead-IVB group oxides (PbCrO4, PbMoO4, and PbWO4) was studied for hydrogen evolution from aqueous methanol solution and for oxygen evolution from aqueous silver nitrate solution. Among the compounds, only PbMoO4 and platinized PbMoO4 powders acted as photocatalysts for oxygen and hydrogen evolution reactions from aqueous solutions, with an activity for oxygen evolution on PbMoO4 comparable to that observed on TiO2.
