The Construction and Photocatalytic Application of Covalent Triazine Framework (CTF)-Based Composites: A Brief Review

Covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) are a class of porous organic semiconductors containing a large number of triazine units, which gives them many properties suitable for photocatalysis, such as high porosity, good tunability, and excellent chemical stability. However, it is difficult to achieve high activity, stability, and selectivity at the same time using a single CTF in a specific catalytic reaction. Therefore, it is necessary to find ways to combine CTFs with other materials to improve their photocatalysis activity. From this perspective, some construction methods and the latest progress of CTF-based composites are presented, and their applications in the field of photocatalysis are introduced. Finally, the future of CTF materials in catalytic applications is proposed, which provides some insights into the research and exploration of CTF-based composites.
