Effects of Protonation, Hydroxylamination, and Hydrazination of g-C3N4 on the Performance of Matrimid?/g-C3N4 Membranes
摘要: One of the challenges to continue improving polymeric membranes properties involves the development of novel chemically modified fillers, such as nitrogen-rich 2-D nanomaterials. Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has attracted significant interest as a new class of these fillers. Protonation is known to afford it desirable functionalities to form unique architectures for various applications. In the work presented herein, doping of Matrimid? with protonated g-C3N4 to yield Matrimid?/g-C3N4 mixed matrix membranes was found to improve gas separation by enhancing the selectivity for CO2/CH4 by up to 36.9% at 0.5 wt % filler doping. With a view to further enhancing the contribution of g-C3N4 to the performance of the composite membrane, oxygen plasma and hydrazine monohydrate treatments were also assayed as alternatives to protonation. Hydroxylamination by oxygen plasma treatment increased the selectivity for CO2/CH4 by up to 52.2% (at 2 wt % doping) and that for O2/N2 by up to 26.3% (at 0.5 wt % doping). Hydrazination led to lower enhancements in CO2/CH4 separation, by up to 11.4%. This study suggests that chemically-modified g-C3N4 may hold promise as an additive for modifying the surface of Matrimid? and other membranes.

Hybrid composite of CuO with $$\hbox {g}\hbox {-C}_{3}\hbox {N}_{4}$$g-C3N4 as a photoactive catalyst: an efficient approach for the oxidation of alcohols
摘要: An eco-friendly method for the oxidative transformation of alcohols to their corresponding carbonyl compounds by using g-C3N4@CuO as a photoactive heterogeneous catalyst has been developed. The catalyst was characterized by SEM-EDX, TEM, BET surface area measurements, powder XRD, FTIR, photoluminescence and UV-Vis spectroscopy. It was found to be very effective for the conversion of both primary and secondary alcohols into aldehydes and ketones with excellent yields using tert-butyl hydrogen peroxide (TBHP) as oxidant at room temperature in the presence of visible light in aqueous medium. The catalyst can be separated from the reaction mixture by simple centrifugation and reused up to five cycles without significant loss in activity.

Insight into the mechanisms for hexavalent chromium reduction and sulfisoxazole degradation catalyzed by graphitic carbon nitride: The Yin and Yang in the photo-assisted processes
摘要: As robust polymeric catalysts, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has been known to have great application potential in environmental remediation. However, the mechanisms in the photo-assisted catalytic processes during the reduction or oxidation of pollutants are still difficult to discern and therefore not well studied. In this work, visible-assisted catalytic reduction of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) or oxidation of sulfisoxazole (SIZ) by g-C3N4 with the addition of formic acid (FA) or potassium peroxydisulfate (PS) were systematically investigated. Effects of operation parameters such as g-C3N4 dosage, FA concentration, Cr(VI) concentration, solution pH, PS concentration were studied. The results showed g-C3N4 can be effective and robust catalyst for both the reduction (Yin) and oxidation (Yang) reactions in the environmental remediation. Mechanisms were studied by using electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. The results revealed the CO2?? is the predominant radical for Cr(VI) reduction in the g-C3N4/FA/Vis system and the SO4?? and ?OH are all the main radicals for the oxidation of SIZ in the g-C3N4/PS/Vis system. The photo-generated carriers by g-C3N4, act as radical initiator, were responsible for the production of the reactive radical species in aqueous solution. This work not only shed a new light on the application of semiconductor polymers for the removal of micropollutants and also will expand the applicability of the polymeric photocatalysts for environmental remediation.

Detection of divalent copper with improved accuracy by dual suppression of electrochemiluminescent recovery
摘要: This work is to construct an electrochemiluminescent (ECL) sensor with improved accuracy for the detection of Cu2+. The improved accuracy is achieved by utilizing a reaction system to realize Cu2+ dose-dependent dual suppression of ECL recovery from gold nanoparticle-graphitic carbon nitride nanosheet nanohybrid (Au-CNNS) film. The ECL sensor shows sensitive response to Cu2+ in the concentration range of 5 nM to 500 nM with an enlarged slope, and high specificity attributed to the high affinity of CNNS-Cu2+ complex and the high catalytic activity of Cu(NH3)6 2+ to decompose H2O2 in the reaction system. The proposed ECL sensor with improved accuracy may prove valuable in future biomedical applications.

Synthesis of g-C3N4/N-doped CeO2 composite for photocatalytic degradation of an herbicide
摘要: In photocatalysis, surface engineered CeO2 could be vital due to oxygen vacancies arise from multiple valency, i.e. Ce3+ and Ce4+. This study reports photocatalytic properties of g-C3N4/CeO2 composite synthesized by a facile method in the presence of l-arginine. Physicochemical properties of g-C3N4/CeO2 material were analyzed through various characterization techniques such as XRD, UV–Vis, physisorption, etc., and correlated with its photocatalytic activity. Observed bandgap of the synthesized composite material was in the visible region, around 2.8 eV which is less than that of typical ceria, but higher than bandgap of exfoliated g-C3N4. On the further side, N doping into CeO2 was confirmed through XPS analysis. It is estimated that synthesis method aided for the N doping, which further played key role in lowering the bandgap of g-C3N4/CeO2 composite. Finally, Photocatalytic activity of g-C3N4/CeO2 composite was analyzed through degradation of an herbicide i.e. diuron, and the study revealed the good performance of the catalyst.

Photocatalytic oxidative desulfurization and denitrogenation of fuels over sodium doped graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets under visible light irradiation
摘要: A cost-efficient photocatalytic oxidative denitrogenation and desulfurization system for fuels under visible light was developed on the basis of Na doped g-C3N4 nanosheets catalyst. The process adopted molecular O2 as oxidant to substitute for the expensive H2O2, and it adapted to the removal of small molecules of pyridine and thiophene. Na doped g-C3N4 nanosheets were obtained via a simple mixed-calcination pathway using NaCl as Na source. The structural, photophysical and chemical properties of the photocatalysts were characterized and compared to those of the original g-C3N4. It was verified that Na was successfully doped in the g-C3N4 lattice in a uniform chemical state. Moderate amount of Na doped in g-C3N4 generated the highly dispersed and porous nanosheets, which further improved the surface energy and reduce the recombination rate of electron-hole pairs. Na doped g-C3N4 exhibited enhanced performance simultaneously in the photocatalytic oxidative denitrogenation and desulfurization. The optimal catalyst obtained considerable removal efficiency for pyridine and thiophene, depending on its improved structural and photochemical properties by Na doping. A proposed mechanism revealed that the holes acted as the major active species for the denitrogenation and desulfurization, while the superoxide radicals originating from the combination of electron and O2 gave a promotion effect.

Facile synthesis of two-dimensional tailored graphitic carbon nitride with enhanced photoelectrochemical properties through a three-step polycondensation method for photocatalysis and photoelectrochemical immunosensor
摘要: Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is an ideal alternative two-dimensional (2D) nanostructure for photocatalysis and photoelectrochemical (PEC) application, while controllably fabricating 2D shaped g-C3N4 nanolayers/nanosheets is still facing challenges. On the basis of temperature-dependent polymorphic characters, herein, a 2D extending g-C3N4 (g-CNS3) is synthesized from dicyandiamide as the precursor by operating the condensation temperature in a continuously three-step thermal polycondensation procedure. The g-CNS3 with film-like morphology showed improved visible-light absorption ability and enhanced PEC performance compared to g-CNS1 synthesized via the traditional one-step thermal polymerization method. Benefiting from its excellent PEC properties, the g-CNS3 exhibited high photocatalytic activity to removal MB with fast kinetics and served as the photoactive layer to construct a PEC immunosensor with high sensitivity and specificity for subgroup J avian leukosis virus detection. A linear range from 102.14 to 103.35 TCID50/mL and a detection limit of 102.08 TCID50/mL were obtained for the PEC immunoassay of the target virus. This work might provide a novel protocol for tailoring shaped 2D g-C3N4 nanosemiconductor with superior properties and shed light on its promising PEC applications.

Self-hybridized coralloid graphitic carbon nitride deriving from deep eutectic solvent as effective visible light photocatalysts
摘要: The room temperature deep eutectic solvent (DES) is demonstrated as an ideal precursor to prepare self-hybridized graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) for the first time, for its special components, randomly reorganized molecules and extensive hydrogen bonds. In this work, by adjusting the proportion of urea and ammonium thiocyanate in the precursor DES, the self-hybridized coralloid g-C3N4, stacked by a mass of double-layer g-C3N4/g-C3N4 nanocages, were prepared without any templates. Compared to conventional g-C3N4 prepared using melamine, urea and AT as precursors, the improved charge transfer between the interfaces of the self-hybridized g-C3N4 has been demonstrated, which is attributed to the well-matched electronic band structures of the two g-C3N4 species, the abundant 2D/2D interfacial contact and increased photocatalytic active sites. As expected, it exhibits highly enhanced photocatalytic activity, which is among the best g-C3N4 photocatalysts without doping any other elements.

Skeletal tailoring of two-dimensional π-conjugated polymer (g-C3N4) through sodium salt for solar-light driven photocatalysis
摘要: Structural modi?cation of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) by addition of sodium salt has been investigated for solar light-driven photocatalysis. The results from optical study indicates that the incorporation of sodium ions decreases band gap energy along with upward shifts of conduction and valence band. However, no substantial increment in surface area was observed, but morphological and optical studies con?rm that the structural deformation of g-C3N4 through sodium salt activates the ?n π * electronic transition, which can extend the absorption range to the red region attributing towards a reduced charge recombination, narrow band gap, and high conduction band edge. Furthermore, the photocatalytic activity of sodium doped g-C3N4 (0.6Na-g-C3N4) was examined under solar light for di?erent operational conditions in terms of phenol degradation of real tannery e?uent, and it was found that under optimum experimental conditions, i.e., 5 h solar irradiance, pH 5, H2O2 concentration 800 mg/L with a ?ow rate of 4 L/h, 0.6 Na- g-C3N4 exhibits 84.22% reduction in phenol while for g-C3N4 only 63.53% was observed.

Synthesis, characterization and optical property study of BCNO and BCN related nanopowder
摘要: Boron carbon oxynitride (BCNO) and BCN nanocompounds are successfully synthesized by a solid state sintering method using boric acid, urea and dextrose as the sources of B, N and C respectively under inert atmosphere. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis show that nanomaterials are synthesized at the high temperature range of 1350 oC. Sufficient amount of oxygen impurities are present in the sample, which is manifested in their photoluminescence spectra. Increase in temperature to 1350 oC under N2 atmosphere causes elimination of significant amount of O-species from the system. The presence of ample amount of carbon in the system results in the formation of high amount of polycrystalline h-BCN with minor amount of h-BN. However, some residual oxygen in the sample, which is detected in the FTIR study, leads to the formation of BCNO compound. These semiconductor BCNO compounds act as the potential luminescence centers for the blue-green emissions of the particles. Thus, these materials may find potential application as a phosphor material in various opto-electronic devices.
