ABSTRACT

The related nano-chemistry has presented industrially available Prussian Blue (PB) and Prussian Blue Analogues nanoparticle (NP) inks with respect to scalability, low-cost, easy-procedure, and green productions saving energies, resources, and solvents. Mann et al. have pioneered in developing a synthetic technology for size- and morphology-controlled PB NPs using the reversed micellar method. The synthesis of PB nanowires was reported by a combination of layer-by-layer method with the anodic aluminum oxides. Domínguez-Vera et al. proposed a new chemical method for the preparation of PB NPs based on the apoferritin cavity. Prior to the rapid progress of nanotechnology and nanoscience, in 1990, Toshima et al. reported a preparation method of PB dispersion solutions, and electrochemical properties of PB thin films by a cast method. The electrochemical properties of the as-prepared PB-hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride film were compared to those of the electrodeposited PB film.
