We propose that the supercritical fluid crystallization (SCFC) method is one of the most promising techniques for preparing organic microcrystals. In the case of titanylphthalocyanine (TiOPc) and diacetylenes, the size and forms of the resulting microcrystals could be controlled by changing SCFC
conditions. In particular, the SCFC method for the microcrystallizaton of phthalocyanines is expected to be useful, replacing the previous acid-pasting method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
