Benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid (Cat No.:I002838), also known as 3,3′,4,4′-Benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid, is particularly well-suited for the synthesis of high-performance polyamides. It serves as a key building block in the formation of polyimide polymers, which exhibit excellent thermal stability, mechanical strength, and chemical resistance. Additionally, Benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid can be utilized as a curing agent for epoxy resins, enabling the crosslinking and hardening of the resin matrix. Its versatility in both polyimide synthesis and epoxy resin curing makes it a valuable compound in advanced materials applications.
