Succinic acid modification method of polyvinyl alcohol
Jul 15, 2020
Using succinic acid as the cross-linking agent, through the reaction of COOH- and OH-, an ester group is generated, which cross-links the PVA molecules and generates a modified PVA glue that is insoluble in water. The introduced COOH-group can improve its water resistance, hardness, adhesion, etc.
Weigh an appropriate amount of PVA, add water, heat it in a water bath with electric stirring, and control the water bath temperature to 80-90°C. After it is completely dissolved, stop heating to obtain PVA glue. In a water bath at a certain temperature, add an appropriate amount of succinic acid to the above-mentioned PVA glue, stir it under closed conditions to react, and cool to room temperature to obtain a modified PVA glue.
Using succinic acid as the cross-linking agent, PVA glue was modified, and the optimal modification conditions were determined to be: PVA glue mass concentration 7%, reaction temperature 85°C, and PVA glue to succinic acid mass ratio 5.6:1. Here Under the conditions, the hardness, adhesion, viscosity and impact resistance of the modified PVA glue obtained were significantly improved, and the water resistance was also improved. This method can be used to prepare PVA adhesives and coatings that require high adhesion and water resistance.
