Product Information

• Name: 1-Bromo-2-butoxybenzene
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 1-Bromo-2-butoxybenzene is a chemical compound that is used in the manufacture of zinc oxide. It is also used as an electrolyte in dye-sensitized solar cells. In these cells, 1-bromo-2-butoxybenzene acts as an electron donor, which provides electrons to the redox dye on the surface of the semiconductor. This process leads to recombination, where electrons and holes recombine to produce electricity. The introduction of alkoxy groups into 1-bromo-2-butoxybenzene molecules allows for increased stability and efficiency in dye-sensitized solar cells.
