TIPS pentacene
|
6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethinyl)pentacene commonly known as TIPS pentacene. Now in stock for immediate dispatch.
A high purity TIPS pentacene for use in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). In stock for immediate delivery to academic institutions in Europe and selected other geographical areas outside of North America. TIPS pentacene has become widespread as a high performance small molecule for OFET applications with a mobility in excess of 1 cm2/Vs having being achieved in the literature. It has excellent solubility in a range of common organic solvents and a good ambient stability making it easy to process into devices. This Ossila TIPS pentacene has been produced with a purity of >99.5% and trace metal below 5 PPM.
Please note that TIPS Pentacene is unavailable to buyers in the USA. Any incoming orders from the USA for TIPS Pentacene will not be processed. |
