Used as a monomer in the synthesis of high-performance polymers, particularly polyimides and polyamides, which are essential in the production of heat-resistant films, coatings, and fibers. It is also employed in the development of advanced materials for electronics, such as flexible printed circuit boards and insulating layers. Additionally, it serves as a building block in the creation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for gas storage, separation, and catalysis applications. Its ability to form stable, porous structures makes it valuable in environmental technologies, including water purification and carbon capture.
