Self-Assembly Strategy for Synthesis of WO₃@TCN Heterojunction: Efficient for Photocatalytic Degradation and Hydrogen Production via Water Splitting.

ABSTRACT: Herein, a WO₃@TCN photocatalyst was successfully synthesized using a self-assembly method, which demonstrated effectiveness in degrading organic dyestuffs and photocatalytic evolution of H₂. The synergistic effect between WO₃ and TCN, along with the porous structure of TCN, facilitated the formation of a heterojunction that promoted the absorption of visible light, accelerated the interfacial charge transfer, and inhibited the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. This led to excellent photocatalytic performance of 3%WO₃@TCN in degrading TC and catalyzing H₂ evolution from water splitting under visible-light irradiation. After modulation, the optimal 3%WO₃@TCN exhibited a maximal degradation rate constant that
