Used primarily as a key intermediate in the synthesis of specialty adhesives, particularly in the production of fast-bonding cyanoacrylate glues. Its structure supports rapid polymerization upon exposure to moisture, enabling strong, quick-setting bonds used in industrial, medical, and consumer adhesive products. It is also employed in the development of dental cements and wound closure systems due to its biocompatibility and fast curing properties. Additionally, it finds use in some electronic applications for precision bonding of components.
