Description

General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of the 12 Principles of Green Chemistry. This ligand facilitates quantum dot and metal nanoparticle formation with precise size and morphology control. As a phosphorus source for low-temperature metal phosphide conversion, it enables scalable nanomaterial production with reduced energy consumption. Click here for more information.

Application

Trioctylphosphine can be used for the conversion of metal nanocrystals, bulk powders, foils, wires, thin films to metal phosphides. It can also act as a solvent and stabilizer for synthesizing cadmium sulfide nanorods from cadmium acetate and sulfur.

Packaging

The 25 mL Sure/Seal^™ bottle is recommended as a single-use bottle. Repeated punctures will likely result in decreased performance of product.
