ABSTRACT |
|
|
|
Novel diamide metal free graphitic
carbon nitride (CNO-g-C3N4) composite
photocatalyst was synthesized by “in situ” chemical polymerization
of urea. The resulting CNO-g-C3N4 composite
photocatalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning
electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray analysis and
Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The photocatalytic
activities of the novel photocatalyst were evaluated using Rhodamine-B
as a target pollutant. The CNO-g-C3N4
composite exhibit obviously enhanced photocatalytic performance than
pure g-C3N4 under visible light irradiation. |
