This chemical is primarily utilized in the development of liquid crystal displays (LCDs) due to its ability to influence the alignment and orientation of liquid crystal molecules. It is often incorporated into liquid crystal mixtures to enhance the electro-optical properties of the display, such as improving response times, contrast ratios, and viewing angles. Additionally, it finds application in research and development for creating advanced materials with specific optical and thermal properties, contributing to innovations in display technology and optoelectronic devices.
