Asphaltene thin film properties and its potential use in organic electronic application

In this work, asphaltene obtained from crude oil tank-bottom sludge (COTBS) was extracted and characterized. The asphaltene solids show hydrogen to carbon ratio of 1.30 indicating that it has high aromatic contents rich with �-� electrons. In thin film form, its optical band gaps are found to be 3...

Faizal Hamdan, M. Burhanudin, Z.A. In this work, asphaltene obtained from crude oil tank-bottom sludge (COTBS) was extracted and characterized. The asphaltene solids show hydrogen to carbon ratio of 1.30 indicating that it has high aromatic contents rich with �-� electrons. In thin film form, its optical band gaps are found to be 3.5 eV. In its intrinsic state, the electrical resistivity is measured to be within ~105 ohm-cm.
