[Preparation of Ag 3 PO 4/g-C 3 N 4 Composite Photocatalysts and Their Visible Light Photocatalytic Performance]

The visible light-driven photocatalyst Ag3PO4/g-C3N4 was synthesized by a simple in-situ precipitation method. The synthesized samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. Compared with that of single Ag3PO4 and g-C3N4, the Ag3PO4/g-C3N4 composite had a higher catalytic efficiency for levofloxacin. According to the energy band analysis and free radical capture experiment, the mechanism of the Z-type heterostructure of the Ag3PO4/g-C3N4 composite was proposed.
