G-C₃N₄ synthesized from NH₄SCN in a H₂ atmosphere as a high performance photocatalyst for blue light-driven degradation of rhodamine B.

ABSTRACT: Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄) was prepared by a simple thermal polymerization method in this work. The effects of precursor type, thermal polymerization temperature, constant temperature time and atmosphere on the crystal structure, morphology, elemental composition, valence distribution, light absorption properties and photocatalytic activity of the prepared photocatalytic materials were investigated. Taking rhodamine B (RhB) as the target degradant, the blue light catalytic activity of the photocatalytic material was studied in detail. The experimental results showed that the final pyrolysis temperature and constant temperature time are positively related to the adsorption characteristics and photocatalytic ability of the prepared materials. In addition, the ads
