研究目的
To improve the photocatalytic activity of g-C3N4 for hydrogen evolution from water splitting by green synthesis of g-C3N4-Pt photocatalyst.
研究成果
The g-C3N4-Pt photocatalyst synthesized by green methods showed enhanced photocatalytic activity for hydrogen evolution under visible light, attributed to increased surface area, extended light absorption, and improved charge carrier separation. The optimal calcination temperature was found to be 350°C, achieving a H2 evolution rate of 582.4 mmol h?1 g?1 and a QE of 2.70% at 420 nm.
研究不足
The study focuses on the green synthesis and photocatalytic activity of g-C3N4-Pt but does not extensively explore the scalability of the synthesis method or the long-term stability of the photocatalyst under industrial conditions.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The g-C3N4-Pt photocatalyst was prepared by a biosynthesis method and sol deposition, followed by secondary calcination.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
g-C3N4 was synthesized from melamine, and Pt nanoparticles were prepared using Cinnamomum camphora leaf broth.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Hexachloroplatinic acid hexahydrate, isopropanol, sodium hydroxide, triethanolamine, melamine, and Cinnamomum camphora leaf were used.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The synthesis involved liquid phase exfoliation, bio-reduction of Pt, sol deposition, and calcination.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The photocatalysts were characterized by TEM, BET, XRD, FTIR, TGA, XPS, UV-vis DRS, and PL spectroscopy. Photocatalytic activity was evaluated by measuring H2 evolution under visible light.
