Used as a crosslinking agent in polymer chemistry, particularly in the development of high-performance resins and coatings. Its unique structure enables efficient formation of imide and amide bonds, enhancing thermal stability and mechanical strength of the resulting materials. Commonly applied in specialty adhesives and electronic encapsulants where durability under high temperature and harsh environments is required. Also investigated as a precursor in the synthesis of functionalized carbon materials and as a mediator in selective oxidation reactions.
