Used as a high-performance electrolyte additive in lithium-ion batteries to improve cycle life and thermal stability. Enhances electrode interface formation, reducing impedance and increasing charge efficiency. Particularly effective in high-voltage cathode systems, helping prevent capacity fade during repeated charging. Also applied in specialty polymers to modify curing behavior and improve mechanical strength in composite materials. Shows promise in electrochemical sensors due to its redox-active properties, enabling sensitive detection of specific analytes in complex matrices.
