2D/1D Heterojunction of g‐C3N4/TiO2 as an Efficient Photocatalyst for NOx Removal
摘要
A novel S-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst based on 2D g-C3N4 nanosheets modified by 1D TiO2 nanotubes (TNTs) has been successfully prepared. The successful fabrication of 2D/1D g-C3N4/TNTs S-scheme photocatalysts by hydrothermal method and thermolysis processes was confirmed through a variety of characterization methods (HR-TEM, XRD, and FTIR). The g-C3N4/TNTs S-scheme heterojunction expressed advances in the degradation of nitrogen oxide (NO), a harmful environmental pollutant. In detail, 2D/1D g-C3N4/TNTs heterojunctions demonstrated the most effective decomposition of NO and their ability to remain stable under visible-light conditions, achieving the removal of over 66.44% of NO at 550 ppb during the entirety of the experiment.
