The construction of a dual direct Z-scheme NiAl LDH/g-C₃N₄/Ag₃PO₄ nanocomposite for enhanced photocatalytic oxygen and hydrogen evolution.

ABSTRACT: Dual direct Z-scheme photocatalysts for overall water decomposition have demonstrated strong redox abilities and the efficient separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. Overall water splitting utilizing NiAl-LDH-based binary and ternary nanocomposites has been extensively investigated. The synthesized binary and ternary nanocomposites were characterized via XRD, FTIR, SEM, HRTEM, XPS, UV-DRS, and photoelectrochemical measurements. The surface wettability properties of the prepared nanocomposites were measured via contact angle measurements. The application of the NiAl-LDH/g-C₃N₄/Ag₃PO₄ ternary nanocomposite was investigated for photocatalytic overall water splitting under light irradiation. In this work, we found that in the
