Cas no 81-30-1 (1,4,5,8-Naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride)

1,4,5,8-Naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (NTCDA) is a high-purity organic compound primarily used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of advanced materials, including polyimides, dyes, and pigments. Its rigid, planar structure and reactive anhydride groups make it valuable for producing thermally stable polymers with excellent mechanical and dielectric properties. NTCDA is also employed in the fabrication of n-type organic semiconductors due to its electron-accepting capabilities, contributing to applications in organic electronics and optoelectronic devices. The compound’s high thermal stability and chemical resistance further enhance its suitability for demanding industrial and research applications. Proper handling is required due to its reactivity with moisture and amines.
