摘要
The development of novel nanomaterials has been in the fore front of research in recent years due to the unusually outstanding properties of such materials. Metallophthalocyanines are well known to be of very good use in a wide range of applications. Nanomaterials based on this class of compounds could potentially have better qualities than the "parent" molecules. The electrochemical synthesis of cobalt phthalocyanine nanowires and the characterization using scanning electron microscope are presented. This is the first step towards a move to harnessing the potential of this class of nanomaterials for a wide range of new possible applications.
