Explore Top-Quality CBDA with Aure Chemical
1,2,3,4-Cyclobutanetetracarboxylic dianhydride (CBDA, CAS 4415-87-6) is a cycloaliphatic dianhydride monomer widely used in the synthesis of transparent, low-dielectric, and low-color polyimides. Owing to its compact alicyclic structure, CBDA-based polymers effectively suppress intermolecular charge-transfer interactions, delivering excellent optical transparency, low dielectric constant, reduced photo-darkening, and balanced thermal and mechanical performance for advanced electronic and optical applications.
