In this study, nitrogen-deficient graphitic carbon nitride (M-LS-g-C3N4) with a mesoporous structure and a large specific surface area was obtained by calcination after melt pretreatment using urea as a precursor. X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), N2 adsorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV-Vis, ESR and photoluminescence (PL) were used to characterize the structure, morphology and optical performance of the samples. The TEM results showed the formation of a mesoporous structure on the 0.1[Formula: see text]M-LS-g-C3N4 surface. The porous structure led to an increase in the specific surface area from 41.5[Formula: see text]m2/g to 124.3[Formula: see text]m2/g. The UV-Vis results showed that nitrogen vacancies generated during the modification process reduced the band gap of g-C3N4 and improved the visible light absorption. The PL spectra showed that the nitrogen defects promoted the separation of photogenerated electron–hole pairs. In the visible light degradation of methyl orange (MO), the reaction rate constant of 0.1[Formula: see text]M-LS-g-C3N4 reached 0.0086[Formula: see text][Formula: see text], which was 5.05 times that of pure g-C3N4. Superoxide radicals and photogenerated holes were found to be the main active species in the reaction system. This study provides an efficient, green and convenient means of preparing graphitic carbon nitride with a large specific surface area.

Pelagic clay is an emerging marine resource with strong hydrophilicity, fine particles and a large specific surface area. In this work, a 1T-MoS2/pelagic clay composite was fabricated by hydrothermal synthesis. In the composite, 1T-MoS2 nanosheets are evenly dispersed on the surface of the clay minerals, significantly reducing the agglomeration of MoS2. Compared with pure 1T-MoS2, the 1T-MoS2 nanosheets generated on the surface of pelagic clay have significantly smaller lateral dimensions and thicknesses. Moreover, the specific surface area is much larger than that of the pure 1T-MoS2 nanosheets fabricated by the same method, indicating that the active sites of the MoS2 sheets are fully exposed. In addition, the composite exhibited excellent hydrophilicity, leading to a high dispersibility in aqueous solutions. In this work, the composite was used as a catalyst in the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP), and the conversion of 4-NP reached up to 96.7%. This result shows that the 1T-MoS2/pelagic clay composite is a promising catalyst in a variety of reactions.

Microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis of TiO2 nanofibers under various temperature and pressure conditions were done in this research. High quality TiO2 nanofiber coatings where obtained when temperature was in range 240 – 245 °C and pressure was 27.3 – 29.1 bar. Obtained TiO2 nanofiber coatings are with a specific surface area of ​​151.5 to 158.9 m2· g-1 before calcination. Comparing with nanopowder photocatalysts nanofiber coatings photocatalysts can be much easier removed from solution after the photocatalysis process. Such coatings with relative large specific surface area are with higher potential application in industry.

Co-doped mesoporous TiO2photocatalyst was successfully prepared by an ionic liquid modified sol-gel method from TBOT and Co(NO3)2·6H2O. The Co-doped mesoporous TiO2samples were characterized by TG-DSC, XRD, XPS, BET, UV-Vis and TEM, respectively. TG-DSC and XRD results showed that the mesoporous TiO2samples exhibited high thermal stability, and the samples calcined at 650 oC indicated well-crystallized anatase structure. XPS spectra proved the Co3O4structure of Co in Co-doped mesoporous samples. Large specific surface area was shown from the BET analysis, and the largest specific surface area was obtained when the Co-doping amount was 0.3%. UV-Vis DRS spectra showed that all of the samples exhibited obvious absorption in the visible light range. Photocatalytic activity of the samples was evaluated by photodegradation of MB under visible light (λ>420 nm). Co-doped mesoporous TiO2exhibited high photocatalytic activity for MB oxidation, and the 0.3% Co/TiO2sample showed the highest visible light activity.
