Can contribute to flame retardancy in derived polymers (polyimide may not require additional flame retardant)
Dual amine functionality enables polymer chain extension or crosslinking
Key Applications of APBOA
High-Performance Polymers: Serves as a comonomer for synthesizing polyimides, polyimide copolymer fibers, and closed-cell rigid polyimide foams with enhanced thermal stability, rigidity, and flame retardancy, used in aerospace composites, aviation materials, and high-temperature structural components.
Electronics and Optoelectronics: Utilized in low-dielectric polyimides for telecommunication devices, flexible solar cell substrates (achieving efficiencies up to 16.1%), capacitors, microelectronics, liquid crystal displays, and laser materials.
Advanced Materials: Applied in covalent organic frameworks (COFs), specialty coatings, nanotechnology, and potentially in antimicrobial agents or pharmaceuticals due to reported antifungal, antibacterial, and anti-diabetic properties (e.g., activating protein kinase B for glucose metabolism regulation).
