3D macroporous architecture of self-assembled defect-engineered ultrathin g-C3N4 nanosheets for tetracycline degradation under LED light irradiation

Vacancy-modified g-C3N4and its photocatalytic applications

“…The presence of macropores increased the availability of active reaction sites, thereby increasing the reaction rate. 73…”

“…72 Recently, the thermal treatment of melamine precursor in the presence of ethylene glycol was explored to produce 3D macroporous g-C 3 N 4 configurations based on assembling N 2c defect-engineered 2D g-C 3 N 4 NSs. 73 The thermal polymerization of melamine sulfate was also studied based on a facile one-step strategy to fabricate g-C 3 N 4 with N 2c defects, which could be tuned by changing the heating rate or pyrolysis duration. The lower the heating rate (or longer the pyrolysis This journal is © The Royal Society of Chemistry and the Chinese Chemical Society 2022 duration), the greater the content of N 2c vacancies and suspended terminal amino groups.…”

Preparation of F-doped H2Ti3O7-{104} nanorods with oxygen vacancies using TiOF2 as precursor and its photocatalytic degradation activity

“…1,2 Their presence in the aquatic system enhances bacterial resistance, thereby inhibiting the effectiveness of common antibiotics in the treatment of microbial infections. [3][4][5] Tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) is a typical tetracycline broad-spectrum antibiotic, which is widely used as a growth promoter in the treatment of human diseases and animal feeding. 6 However, TCH is not easily degraded in the environment and poses a huge threat to the ecological environment, aquatic plants, animals, and human health.…”

Bridging Functional Groups Governing the Charge Transfer Dynamic in an Amorphous Carbon Nitride Allotropic Heterojunction toward Efficient Solar Hydrogen Evolution

“…Polymeric carbon nitride, which is a metal-free semiconductor composed of earth-abundant elements with a bandgap of %2.7 eV, has recently simulated considerable attention for application to visible-light-driven photocatalysts. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] 2D layered carbon nitrides with the basic tectonic unit of heptazine can be prepared by simply thermal polycondensation of nitrogen-rich organic solid precursors. [2][3][4][5] An alternative framework of planar carbon nitride layers, polytriazine imide (PTI), based on linked triazine rings with intercalated ions is generally synthesized via the molten salt method.…”
