BTP-4Cl-12, Y6 family member for highly efficient NFA solar cells

High purity (>99%), great for solution processability and mass device production


BTP-4Cl-12, also known as Y7-BO or BO-4Cl, belongs to the highly efficient non-fullerene acceptor Y6 family. The only difference between BTP-4Cl-12 and Y7 is that BTP-4Cl-12 has larger butyloctyl alkyl chains that are attached to the pyrrole rings while Y7 has ethylhexyl alkyl chains at the clove of the U-shaped structure. Also, BTP-4Cl-12 has greater solubility so it has great advantage for solution processability and mass device production with environmentally benign solvents as active layer materials for organic polymer solar cells.
