This article presented a novel application for the graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ), which was used as nanofillers to improve the tribological properties of polyimide (PI). The composite based on PI and g-C 3 N 4 was prepared by mechanical mixing process and hot compression molding process. The characterizations of g-C 3 N 4 and PI/g-C 3 N 4 composites were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. Friction and wear tests were carried out using UMT-2 reciprocating tribo-tester against stainless steel ball under dry friction. The results showed that the amount of g-C 3 N 4 was decisive to the tribological properties of PI/g-C 3 N 4 composites. The optimal tribological properties occurred when the amount of g-C 3 N 4 was 10 wt %, which showed the smallest friction coefficient and the lowest wear rate. Furthermore, this work provided an example of application for the g-C 3 N 4 as the excellent nanofiller in polymer matrix composites.

“…18 To date, many different types of CN materials have been synthesized experimentally or predicted theoretically, [19][20][21][22][23] indicating the advantage that applying nitrogen to replace part of the carbon in the carbon materials to form the CN topological matrix further improves their mechanical strength, electrical stability, and thermodynamic stability. 24 Among them, research on melon-based polymeric carbon nitride (PCN) materials has never stopped due to their relatively simple synthesis and good physical and chemical properties. However, many published papers have inappropriately named and elucidated melon-based polymerized carbon-nitrogen materials.…”

Over the past few decades, the design and development of carbon materials have occurred at a rapid pace. In particular, these porous graphene-like carbon nitride materials have received considerable attention due to their superior structures and performances in the energy transformation field. In this review, nitrogenated holey two-dimensional graphene and polymeric carbon nitride will be discussed in depth. The structural properties, synthetic methods, and applications including electrocatalytic reactions, such as hydrogen evolution reaction, oxygen reduction reaction, oxygen evolution reaction, and nitrogen reduction reaction, will be presented in detail. Finally, we will present the outlooks on the current obstacles to the development of carbon nitride materials. This comprehensive understanding will help guide and motivate researchers to develop and modify carbon nitride materials with better properties in the future.

“…By direct condensation of nitrogen-rich organic precursors such as melamine, urea, dicyandiamide and thiourea, this results in the development of g-C3N4. Thus far, various synthesis techniques have been employed to prepare g-C3N4, including plasma sputtering reaction deposition [150,151], solvothermal [152], thermal polycondensation [153,154], and chemical vapor deposition [155]. Owing to its low cost and facile synthesis process, thermal polycondensation is largely applied for synthesizing g-C3N4 as reported in myriads of publications [153,154].…”

As one of the most appealing and attractive technologies, photocatalysis is widely used as a promising method to circumvent the environmental and energy problems. Due to its chemical stability and unique physicochemical, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has become research hotspots in the community. However, g-C3N4 photocatalyst still suffers from many problems, resulting in unsatisfactory photocatalytic activity such as low specific surface area, high charge recombination and insufficient visible light utilization. Since 2009, g-C3N4-based heterostructures have attracted the attention of scientists worldwide for their greatly enhanced photocatalytic performance. Overall, this review summarizes the recent advances of g-C3N4-based nanocomposites modified with transition metal sulfide (TMS), including (1) preparation of pristine g-C3N4, (2) modification strategies of g-C3N4, (3) design principles of TMS-modified g-C3N4 heterostructured photocatalysts, and (4) applications in energy conversion. What is more, the characteristics and transfer mechanisms of each classification of the metal sulfide heterojunction system will be critically reviewed, spanning from the following categories: (1) Type I heterojunction, (2) Type II heterojunction, (3) p-n heterojunction, (4) Schottky junction and (5) Z-scheme heterojunction. Apart from that, the application of g-C3N4-based heterostructured photocatalysts in H2 evolution, CO2 reduction, N2 fixation and pollutant degradation will also be systematically presented. Last but not least, this review will conclude with invigorating perspectives, limitations and prospects for further advancing g-C3N4-based heterostructured photocatalysts toward practical benefits for a sustainable future.
