Using the amino group on the surface of g-C₃N₄ nanosheet, chemically cross-linked with the benzyl group chloride of the chloromethylated polyether sulfone (CMPES), which is the membrane substrate, then g-C₃N₄/CMPES composite membrane was provided by the phase inversion. The effects of the addition of g-C₃N₄ nanosheets on the structure, morphology, and filtration, photocatalysis, antifouling performance of composite membranes were systematically studied, meanwhile the mechanism of photocatalytic degradation of bovine serum albumin (BSA) solution was also discussed. The results showed that the photocatalytic performance and stability of the composite membrane were effectively improved by chemical bond between the g-C₃N₄ nanosheets and the membrane substrate material. Due to the photocatalytic effect and the hydrophilicity of g-C₃N₄ nanosheets, the composite membrane shows excellent filtration performance and anti-pollution performance.
