Used as a gelator in organic solvents, forming stable supramolecular gels that are applied in drug delivery systems and controlled release formulations. Its structure enables responsive behavior under stimuli such as pH or temperature changes, making it suitable for smart materials. Also employed in corrosion inhibitors and as a dispersant in coatings due to its surface-active properties. Shows potential in optoelectronic devices because of its ability to self-assemble into ordered nanostructures.
