Organic Microboxes Prepared by Self-assembly of a Charge-transfer Dye
Organic microboxes composed of charge-transfer molecule (HB194) were prepared by the reprecipitation method. HB194 dissolved in an organic solvent was rapidly injected into water to produce nanoparticles. Nanoparticles prepared from organic solvents containing the carbonyl group were recrystallized in a dispersion to form microboxes. TiO2 nanoparticles were loaded inside the microboxes to produce TiO2@HB194 hybrid microboxes.
