| Use Pattern |
| Benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene-4,8-dione (BDD, CAS 32281-36-0) is an electron-deficient building block widely used in organic electronic materials. It serves as a core unit in conjugated polymers for applications such as organic photovoltaics (OPVs), organic field-effect transistors (OFETs), and other optoelectronic devices. The diketone and fused dithiophene structure provide strong electron-withdrawing ability, planarity, and favorable molecular packing, enabling the development of low-bandgap polymers with enhanced charge transport and device efficiency. |
