Graphite-phase carbon nitride (g-C3N4) material and preparation method and application thereof

The invention relates to a method for preparing a graphite-phase carbon nitride (g-C3N4) material. The method includes the steps that a carbon nitride precursor and ammonium salt are evenly mixed, and then calcination is conducted so that the porous g-C3N4 material can be obtained. The ammonium salt is any one of ammonium base salts capable of generating ammonia gas through thermal decomposition or is the combination of at least two of the ammonium base salts. In the preparation process of the g-C3N4 material, the ammonium salt is added into the carbon nitride precursor to be mixed. In the high-temperature calcining process, the ammonium salt is subjected to pyrogenic decomposition to generate gas, a pore-forming effect on the g-C3N4 material is achieved, and the cellular porous g-C3N4 material is obtained. In the preparation process of the g-C3N4 material, template agents are not used, and thus the method is simple, efficient and environmentally friendly; the prepared g-C3N4 material is high in photocatalytic activity and can be used in the pollution control processes such as exhaust gas and wastewater treatment.
