General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Click here for more details.

Application

Benzylammonium iodide can be used as an additive to improve the crystal formation of perovskites, which further facilitate an increase in the efficiency of solar cells. It can also be used in the formation of alkaline exchange membrane based fuel cells.
The iodide and bromide based alkylated halides find applications as precursors for fabrication of perovskites for photovoltaic applications.
