Description
Together with our ultra pureLiTFSi and sublimedSpiro-MeOTAD, also with higher purity over 98.0%,4-tert-Butylpyridine is an ideal condidate for your perovskite solar cells research.
Application
By introduction of Li-TFSI/TBP additives in poly-3-hexylthiophene HTM for CH3NH3PbI3/P3HT perovskite mesoscopic solar cells, greatenhancement of the device efficiency from 5.7% to 13.7% was achieved [2].
Chemical Properties
clear colorless to slightly yellow liquid
Uses
4-tert-Butylpyridine was used in composition of electrolyte for dye-sensitized solar cell. 4-tert-Butylpyridine is specific additive of redox electrolyte in dye sensitized solar cells and dye-sensitized TiO2 solar cells.
