The development of visible-light-driven polymeric g-C3N4 is in response to an emerging demand for the photocatalytic dye degradation and reduction of hexavalent chromium ions. We report the synthesis of g-C3N4 from urea treated with various solvents such as methanol, ethanol, and ethylene glycol. The samples were characterized and the Williamson-Hall method was applied to investigate the lattice strain of the samples. The activity of the samples was evaluated by observing the degradation of methyl orange and K2Cr2O7 solution under light irradiation. Photocatalytic reaction kinetics were determined as pseudo-first-order and zero-order for the degradation of methyl orange and reduction of hexavalent chromium, respectively. Due to the inhibited charge separation resulting from the small lattice strain, reduced crystal imperfection, and sheet-like structure, g-C3N4 obtained from ethanol-treated urea exhibited the highest activity among the evaluated samples.
