Application

HOBPs are UV absorbers for insulating plastics, which can be incorporated with active layers to increase the stabilization of organic solar cells (OSCs). It may be incorporated in parylene C films to enhance the light stability, which can be potentially used as a moisture transfer membrane for electronic boards and photovoltaics.

General description

2-Hydroxy-4-(octyloxy)benzophenone (HOBP) is a UV based absorber that has 2-hydroxybenzophenone as a functional group. It can be used to enhance the light fastness of polymers using UV absorbers with sulfur and phosphorus compounds.
