Application: | Zinc iodide can be used: • As an activator to synthesize poly(vinyl methyl ether) via living cationic polymerization. ZnI2 is known to produce living vinyl ether polymerizations. • To prepare precursor solutions for lead halide perovskite solar cells. The addition of ZnI2 leads to higher stability against environmental moisture when introduced into perovskite cells. |
