General description

Cobalt(II) Phthalocyanine (β-form) is a high-purity metallophthalocyanine compound with a dye content of 97%. With a molecular weight of 571.46 g/mol and a CAS number of 3317-67-7, this compound is characterized by its stable structure and vibrant color properties. Cobalt(II) Phthalocyanine is widely used in various applications, including organic electronics, catalysis, and as a dye in photonic materials. Its unique chemical properties allow it to function effectively in electrocatalytic processes and as a component in sensors and other advanced materials.

Application

Self assembled molecules of CoPC were deposited on epitaxial graphene. CoPC may be used to develop carbon black based electrocatalysts. CoPC modified carbon paste may be used as indicators for electrocatalytic amperometric measurements. ZnO impregnated with CoPC may be used as a sensitizer to determine the photodegradation of cyanide in aqueous suspension. CoPC catalysed aerobic regenerations of aldehydes and ketones have been investigated. CoPC may also be used as an end capping agent of a hyperbranched poly(aryl ether ketone) to be used for oxidative decomposition of 2,4,6,-trichlorophenol.

Features and Benefits

High Purity: Assay of 97%, ensuring reliable performance in sensitive applications
