Poly Vinyl Alcohol (PVA)

Chemical appearance:
PVA is a water-soluble synthetic polymer. It is usually hazy white and does not have any distinct odor.

Chemical application and strengths:
Polyvinyl alcohol has quality adhesive and emulsifying properties. . Most of these properties are dependent on humidity levels with high levels reducing its tensile strength.

PVA is used in several areas, as follows:

• • It is used as a release liner in paper coatings

• • It is used as a modifier and thickener in polyvinyl acetate glues

• • Works as a carbon dioxide barrier in the production of terephthalate bottles (PET)

• • Used in the production of chemical-resistant gloves

• • Used as a fixative in the collection of specimens especially stool in laboratory examinations

• • In optometry, manufacturers use it in synthetic eye drops to treat dry eyes. Contact lens users also apply it as a lubricant on their lenses.
  • Manufacturers use it to produce water-soluble films for packaging, particularly in envelopes that contain laundry detergents.
  • Manufacturers use it to make female hygiene products and adult incontinence products, including biodegradable plastic backing sheets.
  • Manufacturers combine it with boric acid to produce solid boards and spiral tubes.
  • 3D printing operators use it as a support structure and dissolve it away after completing the printing process.
  • Manufacturers use it as a surfactant to facilitate the formation of polymer-encapsulated nanobeads.
