In this work, the development of efficient and stable photocatalyst has been the central topic of scientific research. Herein, MoS₂ nanosheets/tubular-like g-C₃N₄ (MS/TCN) composite photocatalysts with two dimension/one dimension (2D/1D) nanostructure were fabricated through a facile solvothermal method for photocatalytic hydrogen production from seawater under visible light irradiation, exhibiting enhanced photocatalytic performance in comparison of single MS or TCN. Among of them, MS/TCN-0.5 sample (0.5%(w/w) MoS₂) showed optimum H₂ evolution rate of 85.1 μmol·h^-1 and possessed outstanding stability (no significant decrease after 4 cycles). The enhanced photocatalytic activity of MS/TCN composite photocatalyst can be attributed to the fact that the loading of 2D MS, as a cocatalyst, promotes the transfer of photo-induced electron and improves the separation efficiency of electron-hole pairs of 1D TCN.
