Tetraethylammonium tetrafluoroborate (CAT: R074370) is a quaternary ammonium salt widely used as a supporting electrolyte in electrochemical applications. Its excellent solubility in organic solvents, high ionic conductivity, and electrochemical stability make it ideal for non-aqueous electrochemistry, battery research, ionic liquid formulation, and electrodeposition processes. The tetrafluoroborate anion provides weakly coordinating properties, enabling minimal interference with reactive species. TEABF₄ is also utilized in phase-transfer catalysis and organometallic synthesis, where inert electrolyte behavior is required. Its thermal stability and well-defined structure make it a go-to choice in both academic research and industrial-scale electrochemical and analytical systems.
