摘要

Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is a material with a graphite-like layered structure. Due to its non-toxic and harmless nature, stable performance, and visible light response capability, g-C3N4 holds significant application prospects in the field of photocatalysis. In this study, the Sb2(S,Se)3 was coupled with g-C3N4 to construct a heterojunction structure, and the photocatalytic degradation performance of the g-C3N4/Sb2(S,Se)3 heterojunction materials on organic dye pollutants was investigated. Firstly, the g-C3N4/Sb2S3 composite samples were prepared using a hydrothermal reaction. Subsequently, the g-C3N4/Sb2(S,Se)3 heterojunction structures were constructed through selenization, and then they were used in the efficient photocatalytic degradation process of organic pollutants methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RhB). The results indicate that due to the formation of the heterojunction structure, the light absorption performance of the g-C3N4/Sb2S3 and g-C3N4/Sb2(S,Se)3 composite materials is significantly strengthened, and the separation ability of the photo-generated carriers is remarkably improved. Therefore, compared with pure g-C3N4, the photocatalytic degradation activity of the composite system on MB and RhB is outstandingly enhanced. Furthermore, after partially replacing S with Se through selenization, the resulting heterojunction structure exhibits stronger photocatalytic degradation performance. For example, the 4-GSe sample obtained at a selenization temperature of 140 °C can achieve a degradation rate of 96% for MB within 60 min and a degradation rate of 95% for RhB within 90 min. Moreover, the prepared heterojunction structure can still maintain excellent photocatalytic degradation activity even in complex dye wastewater. This study offers innovative insights for the development of high-performance photocatalysts capable of efficiently degrading complex organic dye wastewater.
