Simultaneous Efficient Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution and Degradation of Dye Wastewater without Cocatalysts and Sacrificial Agents Based on g-CN and Hybridized Ni-MOF Derivative-CdS-DETA.

Inspired by energy conversion and waste reuse, hybridized Ni-MOF derivative-CdS-DETA/g-CN, a type-II heterojunction photocatalyst, is synthesized by a hydrothermal method for simultaneous and highly efficient photocatalytic degradation and hydrogen evolution in dye wastewater. Without the addition of cocatalysts and sacrificial agents, the optimal MOF-CD(2)/CN5 (i.e.
