Specifications | MSDS | Literature and Reviews

2,2-Bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane (BAPP), CAS number 13080-86-9, is a diamino monomer with a diphenoxy-phenyl core. Owing to the amines on both ends of the molecule, 2,2-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane is desired for the crosslinking polymerisation with carboxylic acid or carboxylic dianhydride building blocks to synthesise polyimides. The polyimide synthesized from this monomer has low dielectric constant and low dielectric loss, making it an ideal candidate for communication application such as high frequency (10 GHz) 5G communication substrates. With low methanol permeability, the derived polyimide is used as membranes in direct methanol fuel cells. This type of polyimide also exhibits excellent cryogenic mechanical properties and fire resistance.

Other than polyimide, BAPP reacts with dialdehydes building blocks to synthesise polyimines with blue photoluminescence emission for OLEDs applications.
