In Situ Synthesis of Water-Soluble Magnetic Graphitic Carbon Nitride Photocatalyst and Its Synergistic Catalytic Performance
Abstract
Water-soluble magnetic-functionalized graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) composites were synthesized successfully by in situ decorating spinel ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles on g-C3N4 sheets (CN-ZnFe) through a one-step solvothermal method. The magnetic properties of CN-ZnFe can be effectively controlled via tuning the coverage density and the size of ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles. The results indicate that the CN-ZnFe exhibits excellent photocatalytic efficiency for methyl orange (MO) and fast separation from aqueous solution by magnet. Interestingly, the catalytic performance of the CN-ZnFe is strongly dependent on the loading of ZnFe2O4. The optimum activity of 160CN-ZnFe photocatalyst is almost 6.4 and 5.6 times higher than those of individual g-C3N4 and ZnFe2O4 toward MO degradation, respectively. By carefully investigating the influence factors, a possible mechanism is proposed and it is believed that the synergistic effect of g-C3N4 and ZnFe2O4, the smaller particle size, and the high solubility in water contribute to the effective electron-hole pairs separation and excellent photocatalytic efficiency. This work could provide new insights that g-C3N4 sheets function as good support to develop highly efficient g-C3N4-based magnetic photocatalysts in environmental pollution cleanup.

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.
