Chemical Structure
Chemical structure of iso- butylammonium iodide; Chemical fomula: C4 H12 IN.
Applications
Like other alkylammonium halides, iso- butylammonium iodide (iBAI) is used to tune perovskite structures to achieve the desired size of perovskite grains and nanoplates for LED and solar cell applications.
With a branched side-chain, iso- butylammonium iodide promotes solubility and hinders the growth of 3D pero vskite structures - helping you to achieve device performance stability.
