Porous graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) was prepared by dicyandiamide and urea via the pyrolysis method, which possessed enhanced visible-light-driven photocatalytic performance. Its surface area was increased from 17.12 to 48.00 m/g. The porous structure not only enhanced the light capture capacity, but also accelerated the mass transfer ability. The Di (Dicyandiamide)/Ur (Urea) composite possessed better photocatalytic activity for Rhodamine B in visible light than that of g-CN. Moreover, the Di/Ur-4:5 composite showed the best photoactivity, which was almost 5.8 times that of g-CN. The enhanced photocatalytic activity showed that holes and superoxide radical played a key role in the process of photodegradation, which was ascribed to the enhanced separation of photogenerated carriers. The efficient separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs may be owing to the higher surface area, O dopant, and pore volumes, which can not only improve the trapping opportunities of charge carriers but also the retarded charge carrier recombination. Therefore, it is expected that the composite would be a promising candidate material for organic pollutant degradation.
多孔石墨相氮化碳(g-CN)通过双氰胺和尿素的热解法制备,具有增强的可见光驱动光催化性能。其比表面积从 17.12 增加到 48.00 m/g。多孔结构不仅增强了光捕获能力,还加速了传质能力。与 g-CN 相比,Di(双氰胺)/Ur(尿素)复合材料在可见光下对罗丹明 B 具有更好的光催化活性。此外,Di/Ur-4:5 复合材料表现出最佳的光活性,几乎是 g-CN 的 5.8 倍。增强的光催化活性表明,空穴和超氧自由基在光降解过程中起关键作用,这归因于光生载流子的分离增强。光生电子-空穴对的有效分离可能是由于更高的比表面积、O 掺杂和孔体积,这不仅可以提高载流子的俘获机会,还可以减缓载流子复合。因此,预计该复合材料将成为有机污染物降解的有前途的候选材料。
