Used as a reactive diluent and crosslinking agent in UV-curable coatings, inks, and adhesives. Enhances hardness, scratch resistance, and adhesion to substrates like metals and plastics. Commonly employed in industrial and electronic coatings where durability and fast curing are required. Also utilized in dental composites and prosthetics due to its ability to improve mechanical strength and wear resistance when polymerized. Its aromatic structure contributes to high refractive index and good thermal stability in final products.
