Figure S4. Time on stream (1 hr - 24 hrs) catalytic activity over a PdNa(0.6)/TiO2 : (a) The

values of H2 conversion & H2O2 selectivity and, (b) The values of H2O2 production rate &

H2O2 concentration

In Fig. S4, time on stream catalytic activity of a PdNa(0.6)/TiO2 catalyst performed to find

out the accurate catalytic activity according to reaction time progress. As a result of the

reaction experiments for 1 hour to 24 hours, the H2 conversion continued to increase, but

slightly increased from 9 hours. As expected, the H2O2 selectivity and production rate

gradually decreased. However, H2O2 concentration was gradually increased due to

accumulation of H2O2 in the reaction solvent as reaction time progressed. Eventually, the H2

conversion seems to be gradually increased, the accumulated H2O2 concentration is

decomposed by the applied catalyst to decrease the H2O2 selectivity, and production rate is

significantly influenced by reaction time, and thus tends to decrease markedly over time

passed.
