The invention belongs to the technical field of
semiconductor photocatalysts, and particularly relates to a preparation method and application of a
strontium titanate and
carbon nitride composite photocatalyst rich in
titanium dioxide. Firstly,
urea is used as a precursor, and
carbon nitride is synthesized through thermal polycondensation;
strontium nitrate,
titanium dioxide,
sodium chloride and
potassium chloride are fully ground and mixed and then calcined, a product obtained after
calcination is washed with water and dried, and
strontium titanate rich in
titanium dioxide is obtained; and adding water into
strontium titanate rich in
titanium dioxide and
carbon nitride, ultrasonically stirring, washing with water,
drying, and calcining to obtain the composite photocatalyst. According to the catalyst, by constructing a built-in
electric field and a
heterojunction, transmission and
diffusion of charges are accelerated, compounding of photo-induced electrons and holes is inhibited to a great extent, and the catalyst shows good photoelectric performance and activity of
photocatalytic decomposition of water to produce
hydrogen. The raw materials provided by the invention are easy to obtain and low in price, the preparation method of the catalyst is simple, the efficiency of
hydrogen production by
photocatalytic decomposition of water is relatively high, the stability is good, and industrial production is expected to be realized.
