Raspberry-like TiO₂ hollow spheres consisting of small nanocrystals towards efficient NO removal

Abstract

The conversion of nitrogen oxide (NO) by photocatalysis is promising to solve the increasingly serious air pollution. Herein, raspberry-like TiO2 hollow spheres consisted of small nanocrystals (less than 10 nm)...

In situ fabrication of a novel CdS/ZnIn2S4/g-C3N4 ternary heterojunction with enhanced visible-light photocatalytic performance

“…This result fully conrms the high mineralization ability of CdS/ZnIn 2 S 4 /g-C 3 N 4 -0.2 for RhB. The stability is a crucial factor affecting the actual application of the photocatalyst, 56 and thus sequential cycling experiments were performed to detect the stability of the CdS/ ZnIn 2 S 4 /g-C 3 N 4 -0.2 ternary photocatalyst. As displayed in Fig.…”

g‐C3N4 Nanosheet Nanoarchitectonics: H2 Generation and CO2 Reduction

“…[84][85][86][87][88][89] Among these, heterostructure construction based on the idea of nanoarchitectonics provides a clear picture on extending the possibilities of g-C 3 N 4 materials in photo/electro- catalysis. [90][91][92][93][94][95][96][97][98][99] Although numerous paper has been reported on construction of different types of g-C 3 N 4 based heterostructures, exploitation on the ultrathin g-C 3 N 4 material nanoarchitectonics is still at an early stage. [65,[95][96][97][98][99] Nanoarchitectonics of ultrathin g-C 3 N 4 heterostructure material (involving Type II, S-scheme and Z-scheme) that aims for enhancing photocatalytic H 2 generation and CO 2 reduction performances will be discussed in the following section.…”

g-C3N4/Chlorocobaloxime Nanocomposites as Multifunctional Electrocatalysts for Water Splitting and Energy Storage

“…Therefore, at present, research work in this area is focused on developing catalysts with high efficiency and stability in an aqueous medium. For this purpose, a lot of researchers have validated that encapsulation of metal complexes inside a carbon-based substrate, such as graphene, carbon nitrides, etc., increases the stability and efficiency of water splitting and supercapacitor applications and other applications. , Among the reported carbon substrate materials, two-dimensional carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ), − having higher nitrogen content, is gaining importance as a catalyst for supercapacitor and water-splitting applications in recent times. , However, it possesses fewer active sites and high resistance that limit their applications. To overcome this issue, g-C 3 N 4 combined with metal complexes or metal oxides has been explored and it has been found that the introduction of these catalysts increases its active site, thereby increasing its efficiency. , Several g-C 3 N 4 composites with metal oxides, metals, carbon, and metal phosphides have been studied for water-splitting activity, and it has been found that the catalyst’s incorporation into the g-C 3 N 4 matrix improves the performance.…”
