About Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA)
Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) is an organic compound available in white flakes, flocculent, or powdered solid forms, and is known for being colorless, odorless, and highly water soluble. PVA is insoluble in most organic solvents such as gasoline, kerosene, vegetable oil, benzene, toluene, dichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride, acetone, ethyl acetate, methanol, and ethylene glycol; though it is slightly soluble in dimethyl sulfoxide.
Owing to its versatility, PVA is widely acknowledged as an essential chemical for manufacturing polyvinyl acetals, gasoline-resistant pipes, vinylon synthetic fibers, fabric treatment agents, emulsifiers, paper coatings, adhesives, and glues.
Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) offered by Shijiazhuang Yaguan New Material Technology Co., Ltd. ranks among the top in terms of purity, performance, and adaptability for advanced industrial needs.
