Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of photocatalysis technology, specifically relating to a method for preparing and applying a photocatalytic material for in-situ polymerization of cadmium sulfide maleic anhydride. Background Technology

[0002] CdS is an excellent semiconductor photocatalytic material with a suitable band gap and strong visible light absorption, exhibiting highly efficient photocatalytic performance under visible light and possessing significant research and application value in the field of photocatalysis. In recent years, with the rapid development of photocatalytic materials research, CdS has received increasing attention as an important catalytic material for the visible light degradation of dyes. However, CdS itself suffers from severe photocorrosion and poor photogenerated carrier separation efficiency, which seriously affects its further improvement in photocatalytic activity. Therefore, it is necessary to modify CdS to overcome its severe photocorrosion problem and better enable its application in photocatalysis. Summary of the Invention
