Abstract Series of chlorine doped g-C3N4 nanosheets were synthesized by thermal condensation and ultrasonic exfoliating methods using melamine and ammonium chloride. The structural and morphological characterization of the as-prepared samples were detected by powder X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscope (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), UV-Vis diffuse reflection spectra (UV-Vis DRS). The photocatalytic activities of samples with different doping ratio and exfoliation time were evaluated under visible light. Moreover, the mixed pollutant solution containing rhodamine B (RhB) and hexavalent chromium (Cr(Ⅵ)) were photocatalytic degraded by the modified samples. Compared with single pollutant in solution, the treatment efficiency of chlorine doped g-C3N4 nanosheets for RhB and Cr(Ⅵ) in the mixed solution enhance 1.4 times and 2.2 times, respectively. In comparison to bulk g-C3N4, chlorine doped g-C3N4 nanosheets sample possessed larger specific surface, better optical absorption performance and better charge separation capability. The separation of photo-excited holes and electrons is promoted by the simultaneously photocatalytic oxidation of RhB and reduction of Cr(Ⅵ), which lead to the synergistic treatment of RhB and Cr(Ⅵ) in mixed solution.
