CTAB-melamine molecular crystals as precursor for synthesis of layered carbon nitride porous nanostructures with enhanced photocatalytic activity for hydrogen production
The synthesized ZrO2/g-C3N4 composites exhibit superior performance in water splitting for hydrogen production due to the effective electron–hole separation at the composite interface.
Nitrogen-doped CeOx nanoparticles modified g-C3N4 was successfully prepared via a one-pot method, which showed significantly enhanced photocatalytic activity for hydrogen generation under visible light compared to the pure g-C3N4 photocatalyst.
A simple, large-scale and template-free synthesis of highly photoactive carbon nitride (CN) with tunable morphology, surface area and photophysical properties as well as photocatalytic activity for pollutant degradation and clean hydrogen production is reported.
The enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution performance of g-C3N4–Co3O4 2D–1D Z-scheme heterojunctions was achieved through the synergistic effect of the cobalt ion redox, conductive polyaniline, and a Co3O4 nanobelt.
