Chemical Properties
brown to black liquid after melting
Uses
3-methyldiphenylamine and its derivatives are widely used in the OLED devices as an organic semiconductor. Organic and polymer photovoltaics have the potential to become a flexible low-cost alternative to inorganic semiconductor-based photovoltaics[1].
Battery Materials
The electrochemical oxidation of 3-methyldiphenylamine, 3-MeDPA, and 3-methoxydiphenylamine, 3-MeODPA, in lithium perchlorate CH3CN solutions produced either thin, uniform polymeric films on ITO electrodes or high quality, free-standing polymeric films with good electrochemical response
