The photocatalyst exhibited high degradation efficiency for sulfamethazine (SMT) through photocatalysis under simulated solar light. The optimized material was composed of anatase, rutile, titanate and g-C3N4 crystalline phases. In situ transformation of titanate to anatase and rutile with specific content proportion (∼80:20, P25-type composition) leaded to formation of nanoscale “hot spots” at rutile–anatase–titanate interfaces, and then subsequent charge transfer occurred. Large specific surface area of TNTs as skeleton resulted in high-efficient interface reaction, while heterojunction with g-C3N4 further extended the adsorption to visible light region and retarded electron-hole pairs recombination. Density functional theory (DFT) calculation indicated the SMT sites with high Fukui nucleophilic (f-) index prefered to be attacked by radacils. Reduced toxicity of SMT degradation intermediates, good reusability and stability of g-C3N4/TNTs all suggested the great application potential in practical water treatment area.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
