Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a commonly used additive in the ceramic production process. It mainly plays the role of a binder during the calcination of ceramic bodies. Specifically, PVA can form a polymer bonding structure, which can improve the strength of the ceramic molded body and reduce cracks and deformation during the preparation process. In addition, PVA can also prevent the surface of the ceramic body from drying out and warping during the heating process, as well as prevent problems such as thermal shock and thermal stress.   The quality and usage of PVA have a decisive influence on the quality and performance of ceramic bodies. Excessive addition of PVA may lead to an increase in pores in ceramic products and a decrease in the mechanical strength of ceramic molded bodies.   The calcination temperature has a great influence on the volatilization rate and thermal decomposition of polyvinyl alcohol. Therefore, when controlling the calcination process, the thermal stability of PVA needs to be considered to avoid excessively high or low temperatures causing thermal decomposition of PVA to produce gas, which will affect the performance of the ceramic body. Since the firing process of ceramic products is relatively complex, with a wide range of firing temperatures and long temperature rise and fall times, it is necessary to accurately control the use of PVA during the preparation and firing process of ceramic products to avoid damage to the performance and quality of ceramic products. Negative impact.   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 functions of polyvinyl alcohol in putty mainly include: 1. Improve the initial viscosity of the mortar putty and reinforce the tensile strength in the later stage, making it easy and labor-saving to apply and scrape during the construction process, and it will not crack after drying, thereby improving work efficiency. 2. Significantly improve the cohesive strength, adhesion and water resistance of the putty coating, reduce the amount of gray calcium powder, and improve the surface fineness after polishing of the putty. 3. In polishing putty, polyvinyl alcohol can improve the film-forming properties of the surface, making the coating surface denser, harder, brighter, and more resistant to scrubbing. 4. Combined with gypsum powder and retarding technology, polyvinyl alcohol can produce higher-grade gypsum-based home decoration putty powder, making full use of recovered gypsum resources and realizing resource recycling. 5. Polyvinyl alcohol is particularly suitable for use as an additive for construction putty powder. When used in conjunction with methylcellulose ether water-retaining agents, it can improve the flexibility and water retention of putty powder, improve the adhesiveness of putty powder, reduce friction, and improve work quality.   There are two main types of polyvinyl alcohol powder used for mortar putty: PVA 1788 and PVA 2488. In the mortar application field, polyvinyl alcohol powder with a fineness of 80-120 mesh can be used, while in the putty field, uniform powder with a fineness of 120 mesh or more must be used. PVA 2488 has a higher viscosity, but is relatively expensive. PVA 1788 can also meet the needs.   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.

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a water-soluble polymer, not to be confused with PVAc or polyvinyl acetate, which is a water-soluble white glue. In 3D printing, polyvinyl alcohol is popular as a support material because it is water-soluble.   For 3D printing, PVA is the most well-known support material used in  dual-extrusion 3D printers. Typically, fused deposition modeling (FDM) machines use the same material to create the prin ted part and any support structures because there is only one extruder. Depending on the location of the support, removing the support can be a tricky job, not to mention the ugly marks  it can leave on the part. Dual extrusion FDM printers, on the other hand, allow the use of different materials for parts and brackets, which is where PVA comes in handy.     The best advantage of PVA filament is that it is water-soluble, and the printed support structure simply needs to be soaked in water for a few hours. This method also prevents any marks from being left on the part and reduces the need for post-processing such as sanding. It's not as simple as it sounds, dual extrusion can be quite tough and requires a lot of calibration to get a high quality 3D print. As a support material, PVA generally works well with PLA filament because it requires similar printing conditions. PLA is a hydrophobic material, which means it does not "like" water, so if a PLA part is printed with a PVA support, only the support will dissolve in the water, leaving the other part in perfect condition.   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.
