PVOH, also referred to as polyvinyl alcohol, is a water-soluble synthetic polymer valued for its film-forming capability, adhesion, and chemical stability. Produced through the controlled hydrolysis of polyvinyl acetate, PVOH properties can be tailored by adjusting molecular weight and hydrolysis degree. It is extensively used in packaging films, textile sizing, paper coatings, construction adhesives, and specialty chemical formulations. PVOH films provide effective oxygen barrier performance, making them suitable for food and pharmaceutical packaging. In adhesives and coatings, PVOH offers strong bonding to cellulose-based substrates and excellent emulsifying behavior. Its compatibility with environmentally friendly systems supports growing sustainability requirements. For grade selection, technical clarification, or commercial cooperation, customers are invited to contact directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is polyvinyl alcohol and what makes it unique?

Polyvinyl alcohol is a water-soluble linear polymer known for excellent film formation, adhesion, and chemical stability. It combines properties of plastics and elastomers, offering strong bonding, gas barrier performance, and resistance to organic solvents. These characteristics make it suitable for paper, textiles, construction adhesives, films, and cosmetic formulations.
PVA 1788 is widely used in textile sizing, paper surface coating, construction putty, and general-purpose adhesives. Its balanced viscosity and good solubility provide reliable film strength, abrasion resistance, and bonding performance in both industrial and commercial formulations.
PVA 0588 features low viscosity and fast dissolution, making it suitable for low-viscosity adhesives, water-soluble films, and polymerization processes. It supports smooth processing, reduced mixing time, and precise viscosity control in industrial production lines.
PVA 217 has performance characteristics similar to PVA 1788 and can be used as an alternative in many adhesive, film, and textile applications. It provides good tensile strength, flexibility, and abrasion resistance while maintaining stable solubility and processing behavior.
