Abstract

A series of polymerized carbon nitride were prepared by high temperature calcination method after the treatment of melamine with adding SO42-,NO3- and PO43- under the condition of pH=1,respectively.The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),UV-Visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy(UV-Vis DRS),etc.Using rhodamine B(RhB) as pollutant,the photocatalytic degradation activity,stability and degradation mechanism of polymerized carbon nitride were explored under visible light.The degradation of RhB by polymerized carbon nitride(CN-0.04SO42-) with 0.12 mol SO42- was 99.1% within 45 min,and its pseudo?first?order kinetic constant was 23.0 times greater than that of no SO42-.SO42-,which could effectively enhance the photocatalytic activity of polymerized carbon nitride.The degradation of CN-0.04SO42- was decreased slightly after three cycles,indicating that it had good stability.Active species capture experiment showed that ·O2- and ·OH were the main active species affecting photocatalytic degradation of RhB.
