Abstract

This study investigates the use of polymerized trithiocyanuric acid (pTTCA) with varying degrees of polymerization (0–100%) as a precursor for the synthesis of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4). The influence of pTTCA polymerization degree on the structural, morphological, and photocatalytic properties of the resulting material is examined. Particular attention is given to changes in chemical composition, including doping with sulfur, oxygen, and cyano groups, as well as morphological transformations from porous to denser structures. The experiments demonstrate that the use of pTTCA enables effective control over the physicochemical properties of g-C3N4, enhancing its photocatalytic activity in the degradation of organic pollutants.
