N-Hydroxynaphthalimide triflate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

N-Hydroxynaphthalimide triflate is a low molecular weight compound with the appearance of white to light yellow powder to crystal, melting point is 212.1~214.2 °C, boiling point is 456.2±55.0 °C, density is 1.76±0.1 g/cm³, maximum absorption wavelength is 365(CH3CN) nm. It is sensitive to light and moisture and is normally stored under inert gas.

Uses

HNT can be used to form patterned nanoparticles that find potential applications in volumetric manufacturing of semiconductor devices. It can also be used in the photo-responsive pore reopening of zeolites that facilitates the regulation of the gas permeation process. UV-irradiated trimethylsilyl ultrathin cellulose based films can be formed in presence of HNT as a PAG.

Application

N-Hydroxynaphthalimide triflate is a cationic photoinitiator and nonionic photoacid generator used for polymer science, contact printing, and self-assembled monolayers (SAMs).

General Description

N-Hydroxynaphthalimide triflate (HNT) is a photoacid generator(PAG) that forms an acid upon exposure to UV light which can be used to generate patterned structures. It can also be used to tune the solubility of a polymer by forming acid linkages.
