First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A catalyst composition comprising: graphitic carbon nitride; and a plurality of platinum oxide nanoparticles disposed on the graphitic carbon nitride, having a platinum loading from about 25% to about 35% by weight of the catalyst composition. 2. The catalyst composition according to claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of platinum oxide nanoparticles is from about 1.0 nm to about 4.4 nm. 3. The catalyst composition according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of platinum oxide nanoparticles have an average particle diameter from about 1.0 nm to about 3.0 nm. 4. A catalyst composition comprising: graphitic carbon nitride; and a plurality of platinum oxide nanoparticles disposed on the graphitic carbon nitride, wherein the plurality of platinum oxide nanoparticles includes platinum 4+ species and platinum 2+ species. 5. The catalyst composition according to claim 4 , wherein the platinum 4+ species and the platinum 2+ species are present at a ratio from about 1.5:1 to about 1.75:1. 6. A catalyst composition comprising: graphitic carbon nitride; and a plurality of platinum oxide nanoparticles disposed on the graphitic carbon nitride, having an overpotential for reaching a current density of about 10 mA cm −2 from about −5 mV to about −10 mV.
