VAE emulsion is the abbreviation of vinyl acetate-ethylene copolymer emulsion. It is a polymer emulsion formed by emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate and ethylene monomer as basic raw materials with other auxiliary materials.‌The production process of VAE emulsion mainly includes the following steps‌: The main raw materials of VAE emulsion include ethylene, vinyl acetate, emulsifier and initiator. Ethylene can be made from naphtha or natural gas; vinyl acetate is made from the reaction of ethylene and acetic acid.   After mixing ethylene and vinyl acetate in a certain proportion, they are passed into the reactor, initiators and emulsifiers are added, and emulsion polymerization is carried out under appropriate temperature and pressure. Control the reaction speed and temperature to completely convert the monomer and generate VAE emulsion‌.   The generated VAE emulsion needs to be degassed to remove unreacted monomers and low molecular volatiles. Adjust the pH value of the emulsion to make it more stable, and perform filtration to remove impurities and solid particles in the emulsion.   Put the processed VAE emulsion into a special container, seal it and store it away from direct sunlight and high temperature environment.   The production and use of VAE emulsion must comply with national and local environmental protection standards, including emission standards for waste water, exhaust gas, noise, etc. Waste water, waste gas and other waste generated during the production process need to be effectively treated and discharged to ensure compliance with environmental protection requirements.   Website: www.elephchem.com Whatsapp: (+)86 13851435272 E-mail: admin@elephchem.com ElephChem Holding Limited, professional market expert in Polyvinyl Alcohol(PVA) and Vinyl Acetate–ethylene Copolymer Emulsion(VAE) with strong recognition and excellent plant facilities of international standards.

Vinyl acetate is a colorless flammable liquid with a strong odor. Its vapor is irritating to the eyes. It is insoluble in water but soluble in most organic solvents. Vinyl acetate monomer is flammable and reacts rapidly with chlorine, bromine, and ozone. There are two production process routes for vinyl acetate monomer: the ethylene method and the acetylene method. The acetylene method can be divided into a liquid phase method and a gas phase method, and the ethylene method can also be divided into a liquid phase method and a gas phase method.   Acetylene gas phase method: desulfurized and dephosphinated calcium carbide acetylene and acetic acid are used as raw materials, the catalyst is zinc acetate-activated carbon (15:100), and a promoter is added. The reaction temperature is 170~200℃, the pressure is atmospheric pressure, and the space velocity is 200~400/h. Reaction results: acetic acid single-pass conversion rate is 25~40%, acetylene single-pass conversion rate is 12~16%. The selectivity of VAM is 92~96% for acetylene and 95~98% for acetic acid. The total yield of VAM is 97~98% for acetic acid and 92~96% for acetylene.   The catalysts for the ethylene gas phase process are mainly Pd-Au, Pd-Pt and Pd-Cd supported catalysts, and the carriers are mainly silica gel and alumina. The two main factors affecting the catalyst are the coordination ability of Pd and the ability of acetic acid or acetate to oxidize Pd(0) to Pd(II). The single-pass conversion rate of ethylene in this process is 8~10%, the single-pass conversion rate of acetic acid is 8~20%, and the VAM selectivity based on ethylene is 90~94%.   In the past few years, the acetylene process has been gradually replaced by the ethylene process due to the high cost of raw materials. However, with the continuous rise in oil prices, the acetylene process has regained economic vitality, especially the acetylene process using natural gas as raw material. At present, the acetylene process still occupies an important position in China. The ethylene gas phase process occupies a dominant position in the market due to its good processability and economic performance. At present, the ethylene production technology in China accounts for more than 55% of the total national production capacity.   Website: www.elephchem.com Whatsapp: (+)86 13851435272 E-mail: admin@elephchem.com ElephChem Holding Limited, professional market expert in Polyvinyl Alcohol(PVA) and Vinyl Acetate–ethylene Copolymer Emulsion(VAE) with strong recognition and excellent plant facilities of international standards.

The redispersible emulsion powder is first physically mixed with other inorganic cementing materials (such as cement, hydrated lime, etc.) and various aggregates and additives to make dry mixed mortar. When the dry mixed mortar is mixed with water, under the action of hydrophilic protective colloid (polyvinyl alcohol) and mechanical shear force, the rubber powder particles are dispersed into the water, and affect the rheology, constructability, compressive bending strength and tensile bond strength of the mortar.   Ceramic tile binder is the cement-based bonding material of ceramic tile, which can be used to paste natural stone such as ceramic tile, polished brick and granite. The addition of redispersible emulsion powder can extend the working time and adjust the time of the newly mixed mortar, improve the water retention performance and anti-hanging performance; Improve the bonding property, deformation resistance and aging resistance of hardened mortar.   External wall insulation system has been applied in the field of the world, and its installation on the external wall of the building mainly saves the energy consumption of the building 40%-70%. Dry mix mortar modified with redispersing emulsion powder is used to bond polystyrene board to the wall while protecting the polystyrene board. For protective mortars as well as cement-based decorative mortars, polymer adhesive powder provides good adhesion, impact resistance, low water absorption and high flexibility even in harsh environments.   After film formation, the emulsion and redispersed emulsion powder can form high tensile strength and bond strength on different materials, and they are combined with cement as the second binder in the mortar, and the cement and polymer play the corresponding special features respectively, so that the performance of the mortar can be improved.   Even if the type of emulsion powder copolymer is the same, due to the different production processes of different manufacturers, the properties of latex powder are different, and its properties in the corresponding mortar should be considered comprehensively when selecting rubber powder. With the increase of the national promotion of the use of dry mixed mortar, the demand for redispersible emulsion powder is showing a rapid growth momentum, which is bound to usher in a new peak of use.   Website: www.elephchem.com Whatsapp: (+)86 13851435272 E-mail: admin@elephchem.com ElephChem Holding Limited, professional market expert in Polyvinyl Alcohol(PVA) and Vinyl Acetate–ethylene Copolymer Emulsion(VAE) with strong recognition and excellent plant facilities of international standards.

Hot melt adhesive is solvent-free, almost odorless, pollution-free, and easy to apply, so it is widely used in many fields. Hot melt adhesive with ethylene-vinyl acetate random copolymer (EVA) as the base resin is one of the most important varieties of hot melt adhesive, which can be used in packaging materials, book binding, wood processing and other industries.   The development of EVA hot melt adhesive in my country began in the early 1970s. In the 1980s, due to the rapid development of related industries and industries such as printing, food and beverage, wood processing, and electronics, various production lines were introduced to stimulate the rapid growth of new product development and production capacity of EVA hot melt adhesive. EVA hot melt adhesive is mainly used in the following fields in my country.   1 Book binding EVA hot melt adhesive is used for wireless binding, which changes the cumbersome processes of threading round backs, gluing, and covering the cover used in the past for binding books with latex, greatly shortening the book publishing cycle and improving work efficiency and book binding quality. 2 Wood processing In wood processing, EVA hot melt adhesive is mainly used in combination with panel furniture edge banding machines for furniture edge banding, which has changed the backward appearance of manual operation in the past, and is easy to fold and assemble, which improves labor efficiency. 3. Clothing lining EVA and EVAL powders are inexpensive and have good adhesion. They are suitable for various coating processes such as powder coating, powder dot coating, and slurry coating. The hot melt lining made of EVA hot melt adhesive can make the clothing beautiful, crisp, non-deformed, and low-cost. 4 Packaging The bonding ability of EVA hot melt adhesive is relatively stable, not affected by changes in temperature and humidity in the working environment, and eliminates the inherent gluing and peeling problems of packaging machinery. Therefore, EVA hot melt adhesive can be used in the packaging industry in the fields of cardboard and cardboard boxes, cement bags, labeling, food packaging, protective packaging, and packaging container sealing.   EVA hot melt adhesive is also used in the manufacture of electrical appliances such as televisions, air conditioners, refrigerators, as well as the shoemaking industry, PET blow molding bottles, cigarette filter winding, outer packaging tear strips, cable joint sealing, oil pipeline anti-corrosion and other fields.   Website: www.elephchem.com Whatsapp: (+)86 13851435272 E-mail: admin@elephchem.com   ElephChem Holding Limited, professional market expert in Polyvinyl Alcohol(PVA) and Vinyl Acetate–ethylene Copolymer Emulsion(VAE) with strong recognition and excellent plant facilities of international standards.

EVA hot melt adhesive is a solvent-free, water-free, 100% solid fusible polymer. It is solid at room temperature and becomes a liquid adhesive that can flow and has a certain viscosity when heated and melted to a certain degree. It is light brown translucent or white after melting.   EVA hot melt adhesive is mainly made of the following four components: base resin, namely EVA resin, tackifying resin, wax, antioxidant, and a small amount of filler can be added in some occasions to increase the gap filling and reduce costs.   EVA hot melt adhesive has the following characteristics: (1). It has fast curing, low pollution, strong adhesion, and the adhesive layer has certain flexibility, hardness, and toughness; (2). After the adhesive liquid is applied to the adherend and cooled and solidified, the adhesive layer can be heated and melted again to become an adhesive body and then bonded to the adherend, with a certain degree of re-adhesion; (3). When using, just heat and melt the hot melt adhesive into the required liquid state and apply it to the adherend. After pressing, the bonding and curing can be completed within a few seconds, and the hardening, cooling and drying can be achieved within a few minutes.   The type of EVA determines the cohesive strength, flexibility, adhesion to the substrate and processability of the hot melt adhesive. For hot melt adhesive, the following properties of EVA should be paid attention to: molecular weight and its distribution, vinyl acetate (VA) content, crystallinity, softening point, melting point, melt index (MI) and melt viscosity, etc., because these properties directly affect the various properties of hot melt adhesive.   As the melt index of EVA increases, its strength, hardness, softening point and viscosity all decrease regularly; and the more VA content in EVA, the greater the elongation at break and the lower the hardness. In addition, when the VA content exceeds 30%, although the adhesion to polar and various non-porous non-polar substrates is improved, this EVA polymer is incompatible with wax, which is a point to be noted when designing hot melt adhesive formulas. In a formula, it is often necessary to use EVA with different MI or EVA with different VA content to obtain satisfactory comprehensive performance.   Website: www.elephchem.com Whatsapp: (+)86 13851435272 E-mail: admin@elephchem.com ElephChem Holding Limited, professional market expert in Polyvinyl Alcohol(PVA) and Vinyl Acetate–ethylene Copolymer Emulsion(VAE) with strong recognition and excellent plant facilities of international standards.
