Fabricating solution-processible host material for thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitter remains a formidable challenge for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In this work, two new host materials, namely 3CzAcPy and 9CzAcPy, are found to exhibit high triplet energy levels, high thermal stability, and excellent film morphology from a solution process. An in-depth analysis on the photophysical data and device performance reveals the isomeric effect of the host materials has a significant impact not only on the host properties, but also on the host-dopant interactions and thus the performance of the resulting solution-processed TADF OLEDs. Impressively, the new hosts are proven to be suitable for both donor-acceptor type and multi-resonance TADF emitters, achieving state-of-the-art device performance. By using the new host 9CzAcPy, solution-processed OLED based on a donor-acceptor TADF emitter of DPAC-PCN, a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 29.5% is achieved, and solution-processed narrowband OLED based on a multiple-resonance TADF emitter of BN-CP1 acquires a maximum EQE of 26.6%. These efficiencies represent the highest values among the solution-processed TADF OLEDs. This study highlights the significance of host-dopant interactions in modulating the electroluminescence performance of TADF emitters, and provides an effective design principle for solution-processible host materials
