- 4-Aminobenzoic acid acts as a gastric acid secretion inhibitor. It is employed as an intermediate in the synthesis of folate (Vitamin BX), azo dyes and cross linking agents. It is also useful in biomedical sector for the preparation of local anesthetic and ointments. It is widely used in industries to make pharmaceutical products, flavors and preservatives. It is actively involved as a UV-blocking ingredient in sun tan cosmetics.

- 4-Aminobenzoic acid may be used in the following studies
  • Covalent modification of glassy carbon electrode.
  • Spectrophotometric determination of the trace amounts of dopamine, methyldopa and levodopa.
  • Synthesis of 1:1 proton-transfer compound with 5-sulfosalicylic acid.
- 4-Aminobenzoic acid (4-ABA) can be used in the synthesis of: 
  • Schiff bases based on 4-ABA with good antibacterial activity.
  • Co(II) and Mn(II) salts of 4-ABA supported on silica gel which in turn can be used as catalysts in oxidation of thiols to disulfides.
  • 4-amino-3-bromobenzoic acid.
  • Curing agent, N-(4-carboxyphenyl)trimellitimide (NCPT).
