Bis(4-aminophenyl) ether is a monomer used as a cross-linking agent. It is also used in the preparation of poly(imideurea)s, polyimide silica composite membrane, which finds application in gas separation techniques. It is utilized in products such as wire enamels, coatings, adhesives, insulating varnishes, coated fabrics, flame-retardant fibers, oil sealants and retainers. Further, it is used in the preparation of polymer films for electrolyte membranes. In addition to this, it is used as an insulation for cables and printed circuits, and laminates and composite for aerospace vehicles.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
