Used in the production of nylon and polyamides, particularly nylon 6,8, which offers good thermal stability and mechanical strength for automotive and industrial applications. Employed in crosslinking agents for coatings and adhesives to enhance durability and chemical resistance. Serves as a building block in synthesizing plasticizers, improving flexibility in polymers. Also utilized in controlled-release formulations in pharmaceuticals due to its biocompatibility and gradual degradation. Investigated for use in biodegradable polymers and sustainable materials.
