| Application: | Indium(III) acetylacetonate is commonly used as a precursor • In the chemical vapor deposition of tin-doped indium oxide thin films, for electronic and optoelectronic applications. • In the green synthesis of indium tin oxide bimetallic nanoparticles using toddy palm extract, which are widely utilized in solar cells and display technologies. • In the non-vacuum synthesis of CIGS (Copper Indium Gallium Selenide) ink via the hot injection method, enabling the fabrication of CIGS/ZnO thin films through spin coating for use in low-cost solar cells and photodetector applications. |
| Features and Benefits: | • ≥99.99% purity on a trace metals, ensuring optimal performance. • < 100.0 ppm metal impurities in precursors minimize defects in the crystal structure of the synthesized material, enhancing performance and stability. |
| General description: | Indium(III) acetylacetonate, also known as Indium(III) 2,4-pentanedionate, is a coordination complex formed between indium and acetylacetone ligands. It typically appears as a white to light yellow powder and is known for its thermal stability and volatility, making it suitable for various thin-film deposition techniques. Like other metal acetylacetonates, In(acac)₃ exhibits high sensitivity to oxidizing gases, which makes it useful in gas sensing applications. We offer Indium(III) acetylacetonate, ≥99.99% trace metals basis suitable for synthesis of In-dopped materials, and catalyst. |
