In this research, CuWO4 nanostructure was synthesized by weak ultrasonic irradiation method at 80ºC and DI water. Sonochemistry is the research area in which molecules undergo a chemical reaction due to the application of ultrasound radiation. The physical phenomenon is responsible for the sonochemical process is acoustic cavitation [1]. In this work, we used sonochemical method which is an effective, useful, lowcost and a simple technique but it has not been used to synthesize this compound until now. CuWO4 is a promising candidate for supercapacitor applications [2-3]. Cu(NO3)2.3H2O and Na2WO4.2H2O were used as reagents and the resulting precursor was calcinated at 500ºC for 2h in furnace. The product was characterized using fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
