I
n this study, various mesoporous Copper Oxide (CuO) nanostructured particles were synthesized by a simple wet chemical
process using Silk Fibroin (SF) template. CuO nanoparticles were prepared with cupric acetate monohydrate, various
amounts of 1 wt% SF aqueous solution, sodium dodecyl sulfate as a surfactant and distilled water as a solvent in alkali condition
at 60 °C. The structural characterization of the nanoparticles was performed. The control of the amount of SF molecules in
precursor solution could induce a change of morphological structure of the CuO/SF nanostructured particle. The formation
of free Cu(OH)

2-
may be interrupted by the SF and a Cu(OH)
4
2-
-SF complex is formed through coordination bonds between
Cu(OH)
4
2-
ion and SF molecules. The development of a complex with SF can make Cu(OH)
4
2-
more stable without a drastic
transformation into CuO. In the structural formation of CuO nanoparticles, crystal growth mainly occurred in the direction of
the (010) lattice plain during condensation, in which Cu(OH)
4

transformed into CuO. With an increase in the amount of SF,
there were fewer free OH- ions due to interactions with SF molecules, which adsorbed preferentially on the (001) plane of CuO
nanocrystals, resulting in assemblages not only on the (010) plane, but also on the (100) plane. Therefore, the SF plays multiple
roles on monoclinic CuO nanostructure formation, such as stabilizing the Cu(OH)4
2-
ions without a drastic transformation to
CuO nanocrystal and directing the oriented crystal growth of CuO nanocrystal.
