A photocatalyst for degrading a one or more contaminants includes a photocatalytic core comprising boron nitride; and a layer coated on the core and comprising a non-semiconductor material; where the photocatalyst is catalytically active for degrading contaminants under conditions of irradiation by light; and where the layer improves a property of the photocatalyst as compared to the photocatalytic core in the absence of the layer.
