  • Applications

    3-Buten-2-one, 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)- is an organic intermediate used as a building block in the synthesis of aromatic enone derivatives and functional polymers. In practice, it is commonly evaluated as a precursor for monomers and polymeric materials, with potential involvement in Michael-type additions or crosslinking. Real-world applications span: polymers/plastics (raw material for functional polymers and plastics), coatings/inks (a reactive intermediate contributing to durability and performance in coatings and printing formulations), adhesives (a component for adhesives enabling bonding and cure), fragrance/fragrance intermediates (a fragrance precursor or aroma-component for fragrance and cosmetic products), cosmetics/personal care (an intermediate in scent formulations for personal care products).
