Decontamination and Hydration Performance of Photocatalytic Mortar Loaded with S-g-C3N4/MgAl-CLDH
In this study,a new type of photocatalytic composite material"sulfur-doped carbon nitride/calcined magnesium aluminum hydrotalcite(S-g-C3N4/MgAl-CLDH)"was synthesized and loaded on cement mortar through internal doping.The nitrogen oxide(NOx)degradation and hydration performance of photocatalytic mortar were tested.The results show that when the photocatalyst dosage is less than 5%(mass fraction),the S-g-C3N4/MgAl-CLDH content is directly proportional to the NOx degradation rate of mortar.When the photocatalyst dosage exceeds 5%,the NOx degradation performance of mortar begins to decrease due to agglomeration.In addition,due to the nucleation effect of nanomaterials,the incorporation of an appropriate amount of S-g-C3N4/MgAl-CLDH significantly improves the early(1 d)hydration degree of cement.However,due to its water absorption and agglomeration phenomenon,excess S-g-C3N4/MgAl-CLDH reduces the later hydration degree of cement.When the photocatalyst dosage is 7%,the 28 d strength of cement mortar significantly decreases compared with the control mortar.In addition,an appropriate amount of S-g-C3N4/MgAl-CLDH(3%)can improve 28 d strength of mortar due to its micro-filling effect.
