Abstract

By using solid-phase pyrolysis of copper phthalocyanine we have prepared copper nanoparticles in carbon matrices. The elemental composition, structure, and morphology of nanocomposites were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis, and X-ray diffraction. Depending on the temperature and time of pyrolysis, the sizes of copper nanoparticles can be varied from 10 nm to 400 nm. The structure of carbon matrices also strongly depends on the pyrolysis conditions, which allows us to synthesize nanocomposites with given properties.
