研究目的
To synthesize graphene-TiO2/g-C3N4 heterostructure photocatalysts with enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activities for environmental remediation and energy conversion.
研究成果
The graphene-TiO2/g-C3N4 heterostructure photocatalyst exhibits enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activity due to efficient electron-hole pair separation and reduced recombination rates. This study provides a new method for improving visible-light irradiation activity of graphene-TiO2/g-C3N4 composite, making it a promising material for environmental remediation.
研究不足
The study does not discuss the scalability of the synthesis method or the long-term stability of the photocatalyst under continuous operation.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employed a combining secondary sol-gel and facile hydrothermal method to prepare graphene-TiO2/g-C3N4 heterostructure photocatalysts.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were used to prepare graphene, and melamine was used to synthesize bulk g-C3N4. TiO2 precursor (P25) was used as the TiO2 source.
3:TiO2 precursor (P25) was used as the TiO2 source. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
3. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials: MWCNTs, KMnO4, H2SO4, HCl, H2O2, TiO2 precursor (P25), Melamine, NH3·H2O, and distilled water were used. Equipment included a tube furnace, Teflon-lined autoclave, and various characterization instruments like XRD, SEM, TEM, FT-IR, UV-vis-DRS, XPS, PL, and photoelectrochemical measurement systems.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Graphene was prepared by oxidative cutting method, g-C3N4 by thermal polycondensation, and graphene-TiO2/g-C3N4 by hydrothermal method followed by annealing.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The photocatalytic performance was evaluated by degrading methylene blue (MB) under visible-light irradiation, and the degradation was monitored by UV-vis spectroscopy.
