[0002] In today's technologically advanced world, with the improvement of living standards, "healthy living" has become a research hotspot, and addressing formaldehyde pollution is an indispensable part of this topic. Formaldehyde, an organic pollutant primarily entering the human body through respiration, is widely found in paints, wood, leather, textiles, clothing, furniture, cosmetics, and other fields, accumulating indoors during renovations. As a known Group 1 carcinogen, formaldehyde is a toxic industrial chemical characterized by its rapid onset, low volatility, and mutagenic properties. Long-term exposure to formaldehyde can have toxic effects on the skin, mucous membranes, respiratory tract, nervous system, reproductive system, and kidneys, causing significant harm to the human body. Therefore, finding an effective method to remove formaldehyde is urgent. Currently, the main methods for formaldehyde removal include adsorption, plant purification, ventilation, and photocatalytic decomposition. Traditional formaldehyde removal primarily relies on adsorption, but this method is time-consuming, ineffective, costly, and does not decompose formaldehyde. To achieve faster and more efficient formaldehyde decomposition, developing novel photocatalytic materials capable of efficiently decomposing formaldehyde has become a key research focus.
