Decorating g-C3N4 with alkalinized Ti3C2 MXene for promoted photocatalytic CO2 reduction performance

Abstract

Photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) under visible light irradiation for producing high-value fuel has attracted tremendous attention in recent years. In this study, titanium carbide MXene (Ti3C2) was used as a noble metal-free co-catalyst by simply mixing graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) and alkalized Ti3C2. The carbon monoxide evolution rate of the optimized composite (5%TCOH-CN) from photocatalytic reduction of CO2 was 5.9 times higher than that of pure g-C3N4. Alkalized Ti3C2 was responsible for the superior photocatalytic activity due to its excellent electrical conductivity and large CO2 adsorption capacity. Furthermore, the separation of the photo-induced electron-hole pairs was greatly enhanced because of the large Fermi level difference between alkalized Ti3C2 and pure g-C3N4. This work demonstrates the potential of MXenes as noble metal-free co-catalyst for photocatalysis processes such as carbon dioxide reduction reaction and nitrogen reduction reaction.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
