TY - CONF A1 - Möhlmann, Lennart T1 - Investigation on the photocatalytic degradation of toluene, butyl acetate and limonene under UV and visible light irradiation N2 - The photocatalytic degradation of three indoor air relevant volatile organic compounds (VOC), namely toluene, butylacetate (BuAc) and limonene was investigated both under UV and visible light using modified TiO2 as photcatalyst. The new materials feature a high reactivity under UV light and, compared to pure TiO2, a significantly enhanced reactivity under blue light irradiation for the decomposition of BuAc (up to 39% degradation).

T1 - Donor–acceptor-type heptazine-based polymer networks for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution N2 - A heptazine-based polymer network (HMP-3) with a donor–acceptor (D–A) structure was prepared and tested as catalyst for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from water. Compared to other heptazine-based materials, which are typically prepared at high temperatures and have recently received much interest as metal-free photocatalysts, the low-temperature protocol applied here allows the defined introduction of organic functional groups within the polymer backbone. The structure of HMP-3 contains alternating heptazine and benzothiadiazole moieties as electron acceptors connected by aminobenzene bridges as electron donors. The resulting material leads to enhanced hydrogen evolution compared to graphitic carbon nitride materials prepared at high temperatures (>500 8C) most probably because of the stabilization of photogenerated charge carriers in the D–A structure.
