TPT10-C8C12, TP10 derivative with improved solubility
High purity (≥98%) TPT10-C8C12 for low cost non-fullerene polymer solar cells
TPT10-C8C12 is a family member of the popular non-fullerene acceptor, TPT10 (itself similar to Y6 and Y7). The only difference in chemical structure between TPT10-C8C12 and TPT10 is that the former has larger butyldodecyl side chains. As a result, TPT10-C8C12 is more soluble in common solvents.
Coupled with the wide bandgap copolymer PTQ11, TPT10 has made low-cost, high efficiency non-fullerene polymer solar cells a realistic possibility. The higher solubility of TPT10-C8C12 also makes it possible for non-fullerene polymer solar cells to be solution processible in non-halogenated solvents such as toluene or THF.
