Introduction

Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) is a water soluble and biodegradable synthetic polymer. It is a dry solid, and is available

in granule and powdered forms.  Grades include both fully hydrolyzed and partially hydrolyzed.  PVA is an excellent  

adhesive with superior bonding strength, film forming and emulsifying properties. The film of PVA exhibits outstanding 

resistance to oil, grease and solvents. In addition to its film forming property, it has excellent adhesion to both hydrophilic 

and hydrophobic materials. PVA has been extensively used in  textile industry for warp sizing and resin  finishing; 

in paper industry for surface sizing and pigment coating;  in the production of PVAc emulsion as protective colloid;  

in the suspension polymerization of PVC as a dispersion agent; as binder for ceramics, magnet, foundry cores and pigments.

PVA is manufactured by polymerization of vinyl acetate monomer, by hydrolysis of the polyvinyl acetate. 

HOPE WAY PVA is produced in a wide range of hydrolysis and polymerization. In the partially hydrolyzed grade,     &nb
