PVA (Polyvinyl Alcohol) and PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) are two different polymers with distinct properties and uses.   Composition: PVA is a water-soluble synthetic polymer derived from vinyl acetate monomer. PVC, on the other hand, is a thermoplastic polymer derived from vinyl chloride monomer. Solubility: PVA is highly soluble in water, while PVC is not soluble in water. Physical Properties: PVA is a flexible, transparent, and typically white solid. It can form films and exhibits excellent adhesive properties, making it suitable for applications such as glue, coatings, and packaging. PVC, on the other hand, is a rigid, white or grey material that can be molded, shaped, and extruded into various products like pipes, fittings, and vinyl flooring. Chemical Resistance: PVA is susceptible to degradation in the presence of acids, alkalis, and organic solvents. PVC, on the other hand, is generally resistant to acids and alkalis, making it suitable for applications where chemical resistance is required. Biodegradability: PVA is considered biodegradable under certain conditions, while PVC is not readily biodegradable and can persist in the environment for a long time. Applications: PVA is commonly used in various industries such as adhesives, packaging, textiles, and papermaking due to its adhesive properties and water solubility. PVC is widely used in construction, electrical insulation, piping systems, and vinyl products.   In summary, PVA and PVC are distinct polymers with different properties and applications. PVA is water-soluble, adhesive, and flexible, while PVC is rigid, chemically resistant, and commonly used in construction applications.   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

There are two main types of polyvinyl (PVA) based on the degree of hydrolysis, which refers to the extent to which the vinyl acetate monomers in PVA have been converted to vinyl alcohol units.   Fully Hydrolyzed PVA: This type of PVA has undergone complete hydrolysis of the vinyl acetate units, resulting in a high degree of hydrolysis and a high concentration of vinyl alcohol units. Fully hydrolyzed PVA has excellent water solubility and forms strong and stable films after drying. It is widely used as an adhesive, binder, film-forming agent, and thickener in various industries such as papermaking, textiles, packaging, construction, and personal care products.   Partially Hydrolyzed PVA: Partially hydrolyzed PVA has undergone partial hydrolysis of the vinyl acetate units, resulting in a moderate degree of hydrolysis and a lower concentration of vinyl alcohol units compared to fully hydrolyzed PVA. This type of PVA combines the advantages of both PVA and its precursor, polyvinyl acetate (PVAc). Partially hydrolyzed PVA is commonly used as a protective colloid, emulsion stabilizer, and dispersing agent in the production of adhesives, paints, coatings, and textile printing pastes.   Both fully hydrolyzed PVA and partially hydrolyzed PVA have their specific applications and properties, and their usage depends on the desired characteristics and requirements of the end product in various industries.   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
