Used as a crosslinking agent in polymer chemistry, particularly in the synthesis of specialty resins and thermosetting polymers. Its dual bromomethyl groups enable efficient bifunctional reactivity, making it valuable in creating network structures for coatings and adhesives. It also serves as a building block in organic synthesis for constructing cyclic and macrocyclic compounds. Due to its ability to introduce cyclohexane spacers into molecular frameworks, it is employed in the development of functional materials with enhanced thermal and mechanical stability.
