Used primarily as a reactive intermediate in organic synthesis, especially in the production of crosslinking agents and polymer modifiers. Its allyl group enables participation in radical and thermal curing processes, making it valuable in unsaturated polyester resins and specialty coatings. It contributes to improved flexibility and durability in polymer networks. Also employed in the development of functional monomers for copolymerization, where it helps tailor material properties such as adhesion, toughness, and chemical resistance. Its bifunctional nature allows it to act as a bridge between different molecular segments in advanced material formulations.
