The photocatalytic •OH production activity of g-C3N4 improved by the introduction of NO

Aerogel for Highly Efficient Photocatalytic Degradation

“…The crystal plane index is marked as (002), corresponding layer spacing is d = 0.324 nm, indicating that the g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets have a layered structure similar to graphite [21]. The other diffraction peak appears at 13.2 • , belonging to the characteristic peak of the melon-like substance [25]. The nitrogen pore spacing corresponding to the 3-s-triazine structure is d=0.670 nm, and the crystal plane index is marked as (100) [26].…”

Remarkably improved photocatalytic selective oxidation of toluene to benzaldehyde with O2over metal-free delaminated g-C3N4nanosheets: synergistic effect of enhanced textural properties and charge carrier separation

“…The generation of free radicals upon light irradiation over g-C 3 N 4 is well documented. [86][87][88] The electron scavenger study was conducted to learn the role of electrons in the photocatalytic oxidation reaction. Two scavengers were used, i.e., CCl 4 and formic acid.…”

Regulating the Assembly of Precursors of Carbon Nitrides to Improve Photocatalytic Hydrogen Production

“…However, although g-C 3 N 4 is regarded as a promising candidate to implement hydrogen (H 2 ) evolution, there are several hurdles that limit its photocatalytic performance, including fast recombination of photoinduced charge carriers and low surface area [24][25][26]. To overcome these problems, a variety of strategies have been developed to improve the g-C 3 N 4 photocatalytic performance, which mainly includes doping with a metal or nonmetal [27][28][29][30][31], coupling with other semiconductors [32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39], and copolymerization with organic molecules [40][41][42][43].…”
