[Display omitted] • A self-cleaning synergistic photocatalytic superamphiphobic coating. • The inhibition of NO 2 production during the NO photocatalytic degradation process. • Synergistic effect of self-cleaning and photocatalysis of photocatalytic coating. • A green NO photocatalytic degradation mechanism of photocatalytic coating. Multitudinous deleterious NO 2 will be produced in the process of NO photocatalytic degradation, which may cause serious secondary pollution. In this study, a self-cleaning synergistic photocatalytic coating was constructed by the simple spray method. The coating has excellent superamphiphobicity and NO degradation performance. In addition, the production of NO 2 in the process of NO degradation by photocatalytic superamphiphobic coating was inhibited, which indicated the greener photocatalytic process exhibited by this photocatalytic coating. Also, to clarify the inhibition of the coating on NO 2 , the NO degradation mechanism of the coating and photocatalyst was investigated by in situ IR, trapping test and EPR spectra, and the possible pathway of NO degradation was summarized. Combining the result of DFT calculation and degradation product analysis, the inhibition of NO 2 and"green" degradation mechanism of the self-cleaning synergistic photocatalytic coating was explored and proposed, which may provide some theoretical support for the "green" application of photocatalysis.
