 * yes, get on with it! By the way, the name is 'phthalocyanine blue', beginning PHTH.

Infobox
Someone has to change that infobox a.s.a.p.! --79.77.209.74 (talk) 17:25, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Errors on the Page
Hey, I thought I'd point out that there are a few grammatical errors, stylistic errors ("It said that a Chemist in charge...") and spelling errors (info boxes on the right hand side say both Phthalocyanine and Phtalocyanine) etc. etc. on this page. I don't know if anyone will see this message, but I don't have the time or the knowledge of wikipedia protocol needed to fix this.

Use as a CDR/DVDR substrate?
If I'm not mistaken, isn't this compound also used as the recording medium in at least some types of single-use recordable optical discs? Notably (and obviously) those which have a blue or purple cast to their undersides. Is this not worthy of note in the article if it's correct? 146.90.149.117 (talk) 11:43, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

Move to Copper phthalocyanine?
The compound is more than just a dye, so I suggest that the article be relabeled. This move required administrative powers. --Smokefoot (talk) 17:48, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Pigment family
As for PB 15, PB 15:1, PB 15:3...6, the article doesn't make it entirely clear if it's about the entire pigment family or not, but some discussion on the matter would be appropriate regardless.

Meaning of "BN"
Would someone familiar with the name "Phthalocyanine Blue BN" please explain the meaning and origin of "BN" somewhere in the article? –MadeOfAtoms (talk) 23:51, 1 January 2022 (UTC)

Proposing move to "Copper phthalocyanine"
I propose moving this article to "Copper phthalocyanine". See also the 2017 talk section above: "Move to Copper phthalocyanine?". –MadeOfAtoms (talk) 00:06, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

Move done. –MadeOfAtoms (talk) 04:59, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
