Used as a high-energy density material in propellants and explosives due to its high nitrogen content and exothermic decomposition characteristics. It serves as a precursor in the synthesis of nitrogen-rich heterocyclic compounds for advanced energetic materials. Also investigated for use in gas generators, such as those in automotive airbags, where rapid gas release upon thermal decomposition is required. Its thermal stability and ability to generate large volumes of non-toxic gases make it suitable for clean pyrotechnic formulations. Additionally, it has potential applications in coordination chemistry as a ligand for transition metals in catalytic systems.
