Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a porous ceramic for purifying indoor volatile organic compounds and its preparation method, belonging to the field of environmental protection technology. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing airtightness of modern buildings and the growing complexity of interior decoration, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as formaldehyde, benzene, and toluene have become significant environmental problems threatening human health. Among them, formaldehyde, as the most important and representative volatile organic pollutant in indoor air, has attracted much attention due to its wide range of sources, long release period, and significant health hazards.
[0003] Formaldehyde is more troublesome than other volatile organic compounds, mainly for the following reasons: (1) Continuous and long-term low-concentration release: Formaldehyde mainly comes from unreacted components in decoration materials such as urea-formaldehyde resin, and its release cycle can be as long as 3-15 years. This "slow release" specificity leads to a long-term presence of low concentrations (usually 0.01~0.5 mg / m³) indoors. 3 (1) Formaldehyde pollution places extremely high demands on the durability of purification technologies. (2) Strong polarity and high reactivity: Formaldehyde molecules are small and highly water-soluble (high polarity), resulting in low adsorption capacity and easy desorption of traditional adsorbents (such as ordinary activated carbon). At the same time, the high reactivity of formaldehyde also means that intermediate by-products are easily generated during the purification process, which may cause secondary pollution. (3) Low health risk threshold: The World Health Organization has listed formaldehyde as a Group 1 carcinogen, even if the concentration is lower than the international limit (0.08 mg / m³). 3 Long-term exposure may still damage the respiratory tract, immune system and genetic material, requiring purification technology to have deep purification capabilities.
[0004] Several purification technologies have been developed to address the physicochemical properties of formaldehyde. Adsorption methods utilize porous materials to capture formaldehyde molecules through physical or chemical processes. Ordinary physical adsorption (e.g., activated carbon) uses widely available and low-cost raw materials, but suffers from weak formaldehyde adsorption capacity, easy saturation, significant dependence on ambient temperature and humidity, and the potential for reverse release after saturation. Chemically modified adsorption modifies adsorbents (e.g., activated carbon, molecular sieves) by altering their functional groups (amine, acid, etc.) to enhance formaldehyde capture and fixation through chemical reactions; however, it still suffers from limited adsorption capacity. Catalytic oxidation involves the reaction of formaldehyde with oxygen in the air at room temperature or low temperature under the action of a catalyst, resulting in its complete oxidation into carbon dioxide and water. This is currently recognized as the most thorough and promising formaldehyde purification technology. However, precious metal catalysts (such as Pt, Pd, and Au) are expensive and prone to deactivation due to poisoning by carbon dioxide, water vapor, or other volatile organic compounds in the room. While metal oxide catalysts (MnO2 and TiO2) are lower in cost and more environmentally friendly, they suffer from lower activity and stability. Photocatalytic oxidation uses visible light to drive a photocatalyst, generating highly oxidizing free radicals to degrade formaldehyde. It is effective in degrading formaldehyde, but incomplete oxidation can lead to the formation of intermediate products, causing secondary pollution. Furthermore, these intermediate products can occupy the active sites of the catalyst, causing rapid deactivation. Therefore, the development of efficient and stable formaldehyde purification materials has become a research hotspot.
[0005] Porous ceramic materials, with their unique physical and chemical properties, show great promise as catalyst carriers and adsorption matrices in the field of indoor formaldehyde purification. Although porous ceramic materials themselves have limited physical adsorption capacity for formaldehyde, they can serve as excellent carriers for functional components (such as catalysts and adsorbents), achieving synergistic purification through composite technology.
[0006] Chinese invention patent application CN119345991A, published on January 24, 2025, discloses a porous ceramic membrane catalyst and its preparation system. Specifically, it discloses that the preparation of ceramic membrane is optimized by an eccentric wheel mixing system, but it does not integrate photocatalytic function and still relies on physical adsorption. Loading nanoparticles such as Ag and ZnO can enhance light absorption, but it is costly and has poor stability.
[0007] Chinese invention patent application CN120643978A, published on September 16, 2025, discloses a porous ceramic core supported on a nanocomposite catalyst and its preparation method. Specifically, the porous ceramic core comprises a porous ceramic matrix, a nanocomposite catalyst layer, and a surface functionalized layer. The nanocomposite catalyst layer is composed of g-C3N4 / TiO2 / Ag3PO4 nanoparticles loaded on the surface and within the pores of the porous ceramic matrix. The surface functionalized layer is formed by silver nanoparticles modified on the surface of the catalyst layer. Through hierarchical pore structure design and heterojunction bandgap modulation, a synergistic effect of efficient photocatalytic degradation and pollutant adsorption is achieved, resulting in high degradation rates for pollutants such as formaldehyde and benzene. It exhibits good adsorption, photocatalytic, and antibacterial properties. However, it suffers from high cost and the need to improve the formaldehyde removal rate. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0032] Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as formaldehyde, benzene, and toluene in indoor air are major pollutants affecting human health. Formaldehyde, in particular, is widely sourced (from furniture, building materials, textiles, etc.), has a long release period, and is highly toxic; therefore, it is classified as a Group 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organization, making its efficient removal a core challenge in the field of air purification. Porous ceramics, due to their high porosity, large specific surface area, good chemical stability, and high-temperature resistance, have been widely used in filtration, adsorption, catalysis, and insulation. With increasingly stringent requirements for indoor air quality, porous ceramic materials with air purification functions have become a research hotspot. However, existing porous ceramic materials suffer from high costs and relatively low formaldehyde removal rates.
[0033] Based on this, the present invention provides a porous ceramic material for purifying indoor volatile organic compounds and its preparation method. The present invention uses a calcium hexaaluminate-based porous ceramic material with high porosity as the matrix, effectively combining an adsorption-reaction composite coating and a photocatalytic coating. In the early stages of renovation, the photocatalytic coating can quickly adsorb harmful gases such as formaldehyde. Later, small amounts of formaldehyde in the room can be adsorbed and decomposed by the adsorption-reaction composite coating. The adsorption and decomposition of the adsorption-reaction composite coating occur simultaneously, requiring only one application. There is no longer a distinction between the adsorption layer and the reaction decomposition layer, resulting in higher efficiency and longer duration of action for absorbing and decomposing formaldehyde and other gases.

(5) The g-C3N4-CoO-BiVO4 precomposite system obtained in step (3) and the BPQDs / GQDs composite solution obtained in step (4) are mixed and adsorbed in a solvent, dried and then calcined at 400-450℃.

[0045] As a further improvement, the porous ceramic matrix is mainly composed of alumina, calcium carbonate, hollow glass microspheres, dispersant and curing agent, which are mixed, cured and sintered.
[0046] As a further improvement, the dispersant is one, two, or more of the following: ammonium polyacrylate, tartaric acid, glutaraldehyde, ammonium citrate, sodium citrate, and polyethyleneimine; the curing agent is one, two, or more of the following: SecZ, propylene oxide glycerol ether, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide, ethyl acetate, and polyvinyl alcohol.
[0047] The adsorption-reaction composite coating mainly consists of MIL-88B(Fe)-NH2 and physical adsorption materials. Its adsorption-reaction mechanism is as follows: (1) Adsorption and enrichment: Physical adsorbent materials possess a large specific surface area. Furthermore, the ultra-large specific surface area and pores of the MIL-88B(Fe) matrix provide diffusion and sieving space for VOCs. Amino groups (-NH2) react with Fe through acid-base neutralization and π-π stacking. 3+ Through synergistic action, VOCs are targeted, captured, and enriched around the active site.
[0048] (2) Catalytic activation: Fe 3+ Under the electronic regulation of amino groups, they are more easily reduced to Fe. 2+ Through a Fenton-like reaction, active substances such as •OH are continuously generated, while the amino group simultaneously lowers the activation energy of VOCs bonds, which helps the catalytic reaction to occur.
[0049] (3) Oxidative mineralization: Active substances attack VOCs activated by amino groups, preferentially breaking weak bonds (such as methyl groups in benzene series), avoiding toxic intermediates, and ultimately converting them into CO2 and H2O. The amino group reacts with Fe... 3+ / Fe 2+ It participates in the reaction in a cyclical manner.
[0050] Photocatalytic coatings mainly include BPQDs / GQDs / CoO / BiVO4 / g-C3N4 composite photocatalyst materials, and their photocatalytic mechanism is as follows: (1) Photoabsorption excitation: In the system, g-C3N4 and BiVO4 absorb visible light, CoO absorbs near-infrared light, and BPQDs / GQDs cover the ultraviolet-visible light. The multi-component components synergistically capture photons, exciting the valence band electrons of each component to transition to the conduction band, generating photogenerated electrons (e electrons). - )-hole (h + )right.
[0051] (2) Charge separation and migration: relying on the stepped energy band of the Z-type / II-type heterojunction, e - Directional conduction to the surface via GQDs, h + Residing at the oxidation end such as CoO, BPQDs and Co 2+ / Co 3+ Redox inhibits carrier recombination and prolongs charge lifetime (Type II heterojunctions mainly form between g-C3N4 and BiVO4, while the core of Z-type heterojunctions forms between BiVO4 and CoO; the two together construct the "reduction end" (g-C3N4, producing O2). - The complete charge transport chain, from BiVO4 (connecting type II and type Z) to the oxidation terminal (CoO, producing •OH), achieves both full-spectrum response and ensures •O2 production. - The efficient generation of two core active species, α and β, ultimately enhances the mineralization efficiency of VOCs.
[0052] (3) Generation of active species: e -It reacts with adsorbed O2 to generate •O2 - h + with H2O / OH - The reaction produces •OH, and some h + It directly participates in oxidation, forming a library of highly reactive oxidizing species.
[0053] (4) VOCs mineralization: •O2 - Initially, weak bonds in VOCs (such as toluene methyl) are attacked, and •OH further breaks the bonds (such as benzene ring opening). BPQDs / GQDs adsorb and enrich VOCs to improve reaction efficiency, and finally the VOCs are gradually oxidized to CO2 and H2O.
[0054] The roles of each component in the BPQDs / GQDs / CoO / BiVO4 / g-C3N4 composite photocatalyst material are as follows: BPQDs (black phosphorus quantum dots): On the one hand, they broaden the light absorption range (covering 400-800nm) through the quantum confinement effect, enhancing the capture of visible light; on the other hand, their surface defects can adsorb VOCs molecules, while simultaneously acting as hole traps to retain highly oxidizing holes (h). + It promotes the formation of •OH and enhances the oxidation capacity of VOCs.
[0055] GQDs (graphene quantum dots): act as "electron highways," accelerating photogenerated electrons (electrons) through their high conductivity. - The directional migration of ions reduces recombination with holes; at the same time, its excellent light transmittance does not block light absorption, and it can also assist in the adsorption of benzene VOCs through π-π stacking, thereby increasing the local pollutant concentration.
[0056] CoO: As a "near-infrared responsive unit and oxidation enhancer," its narrow bandgap (≈1.2 eV) allows it to absorb near-infrared light (520-1000 nm), expanding the range of light utilization; its valence band hole (2.0 eV) has strong oxidation ability, directly generating •OH, and Co... 2+ / Co 3+ Redox pairs can capture electrons and release them slowly, extending charge lifetime.
[0057] BiVO4 (bismuth vanadate): As a "visible light response core and charge bridge", it absorbs visible light (λ<520nm) to generate charge carriers. Its band positions (conduction band 0.3eV, valence band 2.4eV) match g-C3N4 and CoO. In the Z-type heterojunction, it plays the role of an "intermediate transport layer" to guide the directional flow of charge.
[0058] g-C3N4 (graphitic carbon nitride): Serving as the "reduction end core and structural framework," it absorbs visible light (λ<460nm) to generate strongly reducing electrons (conduction band -1.3eV), which is the precursor for O2.- It generates an electron source; at the same time, its layered structure has high stability, providing support for the entire system and ensuring the integrity of the heterojunction structure.

It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments. The equipment and raw materials used are all commercially available or commonly used in the art. Unless otherwise specified, the methods in the following embodiments are conventional methods in the art.
[0060] The hollow glass microspheres used in the following examples are HL38 from Zhengzhou Shenglait Hollow Microsphere New Material Co., Ltd.
[0061] Specific embodiments of the porous ceramic for purifying indoor volatile organic compounds and its preparation method according to the present invention: Example 1 The specific preparation process of the porous ceramic for purifying indoor volatile organic compounds in this embodiment is as follows: 1. Preparation of calcium hexaaluminate-based porous ceramic materials: Weigh 85.62g of alumina (45-65μm) and 14.38g of calcium carbonate (10-18μm), and dry mix them in a ball mill jar for 60 minutes to ensure uniform mixing. Add 1g of ammonium polyacrylate, 5g of SECURITY Z, and 35g of deionized water to the dry-mixed powder, and continue wet mixing for 60 minutes to form a uniform slurry. Add 40g of hollow glass microspheres to the slurry (during the subsequent sintering process, the shell material of the hollow glass microspheres participates in the solid-phase reaction, while the air in the hollow parts remains unchanged, becoming pores in the matrix), and stir at low speed for 20 minutes to uniformly disperse the microspheres in the slurry. Pour the mixed slurry into a mold (200×200×10mm). 3 The surface was smoothed with a scraper and allowed to stand at room temperature for 24 hours for initial curing. It was then placed in an oven and dried at 95°C for 24 hours to remove moisture. Finally, it was transferred to a muffle furnace and heated to 1500°C at a rate of 3°C / min, held for 3 hours, and allowed to cool naturally to room temperature to obtain a calcium hexaaluminate-based porous ceramic material (open porosity ≥85%).

[0071] (6) BPQDs / GQDs composite (construction of a dual quantum dot synergistic system): 15 mL of BPQDs solution and 5 mL of GQDs solution were measured according to the mass ratio of BPQDs to GQDs of 3:1 and poured into a 50 mL beaker; 1 mL of 0.05 wt% KH-560 solution was added dropwise to the mixed solution and magnetically stirred for 10 min; the mixture was placed in an ultrasonic instrument and ultrasonicated at 300 W power for 15 min to obtain the BPQDs / GQDs composite solution.
[0072] (7) Loading and shaping: Take 1.0g of CoO / BiVO4 / g-C3N4 pre-composite system, add 10mL of deionized water, and ultrasonically disperse for 10min; slowly add 8mL of the above BPQDs / GQDs composite solution, and magnetically stir for 2h; dry in an oven at 80℃ for 4h to obtain dry gel; transfer to a muffle furnace, heat to 420℃ at 2℃ / min, keep warm for 2h, and grind through a 300-mesh sieve after natural cooling to obtain BPQDs / GQDs / CoO / BiVO4 / g-C3N4 composite photocatalyst material.

[0074] (9) Preparation of inorganic base material: Add 100 mL of silica sol to the stirred tank, slowly add 30 mL of modified lithium silicate (in this example, a 20 wt% methyl-modified lithium silicate polymer solution is used), stir for 10 min to form a mixed base material.

[0075] Note: The preparation process of the 20wt% methyl-modified lithium silicate polymer solution used in step (9) is as follows: Take 80 mL of lithium silicate (modulus 4, solid content 22 wt%, Wona Fluorine Materials Co., Ltd.), dilute with 10 mL of deionized water, stir for 5 min, adjust the pH to 9-10 with 0.1 mol / L hydrochloric acid, and maintain the temperature in a 40-50℃ water bath.

[0076] (10) Combining and dispersing: Slowly drip 40 mL of the suspension from step (8) into the base material while stirring at high speed for 30 min; adjust the viscosity of the coating with 20 mL of deionized water; add 0.3 wt% of silicone defoamer (a commercially available product; the silicone defoamer in this example was purchased from Jinan Delan Chemical Co., Ltd.), and stir at low speed for 10 min to remove bubbles.
[0077] 5. Preparation of porous ceramics for purifying indoor volatile organic compounds: (1) Cleaning of porous ceramic surfaces: The calcium hexaaluminate-based porous ceramic material prepared in step 1 was ultrasonically cleaned in anhydrous ethanol for 15-20 minutes to remove surface dust and oil. The cleaned ceramic was then placed in a forced-air drying oven and dried at 60-80℃ for 2-4 hours to ensure that there was no moisture in the pores.
[0078] (2) In vacuum negative pressure porous ceramics, adsorption-reaction type composite coatings: Place a corrosion-resistant tray inside a vacuum drying oven and pour in the adjusted adsorption-reaction composite coating. The coating volume should be sufficient to completely submerge the porous ceramic (the liquid level should be 2 cm above the top of the ceramic). Slowly place the pretreated calcium hexaaluminate-based porous ceramic material into the coating, ensuring complete immersion and avoiding air bubble encapsulation. Close the vacuum drying oven door, start the vacuum pump, and slowly evacuate to -0.06~-0.08 MPa. Maintain this negative pressure for 30 minutes, using the negative pressure difference to allow the coating to penetrate the pores inside the ceramic and simultaneously form a uniform wetting layer on the surface. After the set time is reached, slowly open the vacuum valve to release the negative pressure. Once the pressure returns to normal, remove the ceramic, gently tilt it, and drain any excess coating from the surface. At this point, the ceramic pores are loaded with coating, and a thin coating has formed on the surface. Place the drained ceramic back into the drying oven and maintain the temperature at 60℃ for 2 hours to slowly evaporate the solvent in the coating. This allows the coating inside the pores and on the surface to initially set, preventing cracking or pore blockage caused by rapid solvent evaporation during subsequent high-temperature curing. The temperature was raised to 120℃ and held for 3 hours to allow the adsorbed and reacted components in the coating to firmly bond with the pore walls and surface of the ceramic, forming a stable composite structure. After natural cooling to room temperature, the coating loading was calculated and controlled at 10%.
[0079] (3) Photocatalytic coating sprayed onto porous ceramic surfaces: Set the air compressor pressure to 0.4 MPa, maintain a distance of 15-20 cm between the spray gun and the ceramic surface, keep the spraying angle at 90° (perpendicular to the ceramic surface), and move at a uniform speed (approximately 5 cm / s) to avoid localized paint buildup. Employ a "thin coat, multiple coats" strategy. After the first coat, pre-bake the ceramic in a 60°C oven for 10 minutes (to allow the paint to initially adhere and prevent dripping during subsequent coats). Repeat the spraying 2-3 times, pre-bake for 10 minutes after each coat, ultimately controlling the dry film thickness to 5-10 μm.
[0080] Specifically, the porous ceramic prepared in this embodiment for purifying indoor volatile organic compounds, such as... Figure 1 As shown.
[0081] Example 2 The specific preparation process of the porous ceramic for purifying indoor volatile organic compounds in this embodiment differs from that in Example 1 only in that: in step (10) of step 4, 30 mL of the suspension from step (8) is slowly dripped into the base material.
[0082] Example 3 The specific preparation process of the porous ceramic for purifying indoor volatile organic compounds in this embodiment differs from that in Example 1 only in that: in step (10) of step 4, 20 mL of the suspension from step (8) is slowly dripped into the base material.
[0083] Comparative Example 1 This comparative example is the calcium hexaaluminate-based porous ceramic material prepared in Example 1.
[0084] Comparative Example 2 The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the calcium hexaaluminate-based porous ceramic material is not coated with a photocatalytic coating.
[0085] Comparative Example 3 The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the calcium hexaaluminate-based porous ceramic material is not loaded with an adsorption-reactive coating.
[0086] Comparative Example 4 The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the calcium hexaaluminate-based porous ceramic material does not support adsorption-reaction coatings, and BPQDs, GQDs and CoO are not used to modify BiVO4 / g-C3N4 when preparing photocatalytic coatings.
[0087] After preparing nitrogen-phosphorus co-doped g-C3N4 and BiVO4 sols, the following steps were performed to prepare composite photocatalyst powder: 1g of nitrogen-phosphorus co-doped g-C3N4 powder was weighed and added to 1g of prepared BiVO4 sol and 10mL of deionized water; the mixture was transferred to an ultrasonic instrument (300W power) and ultrasonically dispersed for 30min (ultrasound can break the interlayer agglomeration of g-C3N4, so that BiVO4 sol is uniformly loaded on the surface of g-C3N4); after ultrasonication, the mixture was poured into an evaporating dish and dried in an 80℃ forced-air oven for 4h (low temperature and slow drying avoid rapid solvent evaporation leading to particle agglomeration), resulting in a light yellow-green dry gel; the dry gel was transferred to an alumina crucible and placed in a muffle furnace at 450℃ for 2h; after calcination, it was naturally cooled to room temperature, the product was taken out and ground for 10min, and passed through a 300-mesh sieve to obtain a light yellow BiVO4 / g-C3N4 composite photocatalyst powder.
[0088] Experiment Example 1: Formaldehyde Removal Rate and Durability Testing Reaction apparatus (schematic diagram shown) Figure 2 As shown): 100mL closed glass reactor (quartz glass top, including gas inlet / outlet / sampling port and temperature sensor), 300W xenon lamp (simulating sunlight). Figure 2 (Not shown in the image).
[0089] Test conditions: 2 mL of deionized water was added to the bottom of the reactor (simulating the humidity of the actual environment). Then, a quartz reactor (d=20 mm, h=30 mm, open at the top; the quartz reactor has good light transmittance and high transmittance of sunlight simulated by the xenon lamp, which is conducive to driving the photocatalytic degradation of formaldehyde) containing a porous ceramic sample (d=10 mm, h=20 mm) was placed at the bottom of the closed glass reactor. Pure O2 (2 atm) was introduced to remove the air in the device. 3 μL of formaldehyde solution (mass concentration of 37%) was injected into the closed glass reactor using a microsyringe (formaldehyde is volatile and will evaporate into the air in the reactor after being injected into the closed glass reactor). Samples were taken for analysis every 20 min for a total of 80 min. The adsorption and degradation effect of formaldehyde on Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-4 was tested in this way. The test results are shown in Table 1. The same testing method was used to conduct durability tests on Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 3-4. The durability test samples were used repeatedly, and the number of cycles in which "the removal rate was less than 90% in 120 minutes" was recorded. The test results are shown in Table 2.
[0090] Table 1
[0091] Table 2
[0092] As shown in Table 1, the porous ceramic-supported composite coatings prepared in this invention exhibit excellent VOCs removal rates. Comparative Examples 1-3 demonstrate that both the adsorption-reaction type and the photocatalytic type coatings have a significant effect on formaldehyde removal, with the photocatalytic type coating showing better removal efficiency than the adsorption-reaction type coating within the same timeframe. This is because the photocatalytic type coating can achieve a full-spectrum response, generating •OH and •O2 in a short time. - The presence of a large total amount of three types of active species—negative oxygen, positive oxygen, and negative oxygen ions (NEO, NE, and NE)—allows for deep mineralization of pollutants, preventing the accumulation of intermediate products and resulting in stronger degradation momentum. As shown in Comparative Example 4, the modification of BiVO4 / g-C3N4 by BPQDs, GQDs, and CoO improves the formaldehyde removal rate and efficiency. This is because BPQDs, GQDs, and CoO broaden the light absorption range of the photocatalytic coating, converting more photons into photogenerated carriers and providing more energy for the reaction. Simultaneously, the high conductivity of BPQDs / GQDs and the Z-shaped heterojunction constructed with CoO inhibit electron-hole recombination and extend carrier lifetime. Furthermore, in addition to the •OH and •O2 generated by BiVO4 / g-C3N4… - In addition, CoO also generates •OH, and the electron transport of BPQDs / GQDs promotes •O2. - When converted to •OH, the total amount of active species generated increases within the same time frame, and the oxidation rate of formaldehyde by •OH is higher than that of •O2. -Higher efficiency accelerates the degradation of formaldehyde into CO2 and H2O, resulting in a higher formaldehyde removal rate.
[0093] As shown in Table 2, the porous ceramic-supported composite coatings prepared in this invention exhibit outstanding durability, maintaining a formaldehyde removal rate of no less than 90% after 8 cycles. It can be seen that the modification of BiVO4 / g-C3N4 by BPQDs, GQDs, and CoO extends the photocatalytic lifetime. This is because BPQDs and GQDs broaden light absorption to the near-infrared region, while CoO enhances photoresponse stability, preventing the degradation efficiency decrease caused by BiVO4 / g-C3N4's absorption of only visible light and the decay of photoresponse after long-term illumination. Furthermore, BPQDs / GQDs rapidly transfer charge carriers, and CoO constructs a Z-shaped heterojunction to suppress electron-hole recombination, reducing the passivation of catalyst active sites in BiVO4 / g-C3N4 due to charge carrier recombination accumulation. Simultaneously, the active species such as •OH generated synergistically by the multi-components can promptly degrade formaldehyde and intermediate products, preventing intermediate products from adhering and clogging active sites, thereby extending the coating's continuous formaldehyde removal time.
