摘要
Transferring traditional plasmonic noble metal nanomaterials from the laboratory to industrial production has remained challenging due to the high price of noble metals. The development of cost-effective non-noble-metal alternatives with outstanding plasmonic properties has therefore become essential. Herein, we report on the gram-scale production of differently shaped TiN nanoparticles with strong plasmon-enabled broadband light absorption, including differently sized TiN nanospheres, nanobipyramids, and nanorod arrays. The TiN nanospheres and nanobipyramids are further coembedded in highly porous poly-(vinyl alcohol) films to function as a photothermal material for solar seawater desalination. A seawater evaporation rate of 3.8 kg m(-2) h(-1 )is achieved, which marks the record performance among all plasmonic solar seawater desalination systems reported so far. The removal percentage of phenol reaches 98.3%, which is attributed to the joint action of the excellent photocatalytic ability and the superhydrophilicity of the porous TiN-based composite film.
