Abstract: | CeO2/g-C3N4 heterojunction photocatalyst had been successfully fabricated through a one-step in-situ pyrolysis formation of 3D hollow CeO2 mesoporous nanospheres and 2D g-C3N4 nanosheets together with simultaneous removal of carbon sphere templates after heat treatment.The sample shows high catalytic performances for photocatalytic hydrogen generation and photocatalytic oxidation of Bisphe-nol A(BPA)under visible light irradiation,and the catalytic degradation route of BPA was suggested by the degradation products determined by GC-MS.The enhancing catalytic activity was attributed to the effective interfacial charge migration and separation.Finally,it was proposed that the CeO2/g-C3N4 het-erojunction photocatalyst could follow a more appropriate Z-scheme charge transfer mechanism,which was confirmed by the analysis of experiment and theoretical calculation results. |
