Abstract
Synthesis of nanostructures for industrial usage is a challenge issue since most of the scale up production is not economically suitable. Here we have described two efficient synthesis approaches for copper (II) oxide nanostructures. And, we have compared the methods with current published procedures in terms of time and its impact to the environments. Our simple and environmentally friendly synthesis procedures can produce various Cu (II) oxide nanostructures. We have successfully synthesis Cu (OH)2, CuO nanowire and CuO nanoparticles. And, they were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), We have also explored the potential of these nanostructure for future development on biomedical applications.
