• investigation [2][3][4][5][6]. The dynamics and advantages of supramolecular compounds of porphyrins within devices and in fabricated materials are relevant for molecular studies [7][8]. Properties of supramolecular films with porphyrins can be investigated with approaches such as non-linear optics [9

• and form supramolecular and protruding structures. This explains the high CR binding capacity of carbon nanotubes. The presented system – containing SWNTs covered with CR – offers a wide range of biomedical applications. Keywords: Congo red; single-wall carbon nanotubes; supramolecular compounds

• . The rate of cooling is of big importance in case of supramolecular compounds. Abruptly cooled solutions of molecules that show a high self-assembling capability – like CR – create rather disordered assemblies which may be converted to an ordered and more stable (optimum) form as the temperature is
