General description
1,2,3,4-Butanetetracarboxylic acid (BTCA) is utilized as a cross-linking agent and as a building block for the synthesis of specialized polymers for the formulation of resins, polymers, coatings, and adhesives.
Application
1,2,3,4-Butanetetracarboxylic acid (BTCA) can be used as a cross-linking agent:
- To functionalize cotton fabric. BTCA-treated fabric shows improved anti-pilling, wrinkle resistance, and fire-retardant properties.
- To fabricate flexible, free-standing nanocellulose membranes. The cross-linking with BTCA improves water stability and ionic conductivity of membranes.

Micro- and nanofiber (NF) hydrogels fabricated by electrospinning to typically exhibit outstanding high porosity and specific surface area under hydrated conditions. However, the high crystallinity of NFs limits the achievement of transparency via electrospinning. Transparent poly(vinyl alcohol)/β-cyclodextrin polymer NF hydrogels

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) provide a promising means of creating custom-tailored cell lines for cellular therapies. Their application in regenerative medicine, however, depends on the possibility that the maintenance and differentiation of cells and organs occur under defined conditions.
