  • EVA and Polyvinyl Alcohol: Chemical and Physical Properties Analysis
    Mar 21, 2025
    🔬 At a molar fraction of 5% vinyl acetate, the mechanical properties of EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate copolymers) become very similar to those of soft PVC.EVA is flexible in its own right, which gives it a number of advantages, such as the disadvantage of avoiding the migration of plasticizers, which is the main reason for the gradual replacement of PVC.     💪 These copolymers have a higher modulus and better processing properties than typical elastomers and do not require vulcanization considerations. Polyvinyl alcohol can be obtained by hydrolysis of polyvinyl acetate. Poly(vinyl alcohol) is an atactic cubic polymer but does not disrupt the lattice structure due to the small hydroxyl groups. Therefore, ester bases that are not sufficiently hydrolyzed reduce crystallinity and the number of intermolecular hydrogen bonds.   💧 Highly hydrolyzed poly(vinyl acetate) (containing fewer unhydrolyzed ester groups) has a higher crystallinity. As the degree of hydrolysis increases, the molecules become easily crystallized. If these molecules are not sufficiently dispersed before dissolution, hydrogen bonding will cause them to associate with each other. In order to achieve hydrolysis levels above 98%, manufacturers need to operate at a low temperature of 96°C to ensure that the larger molecules have sufficient thermal energy to dissolve.   Website: www.elephchem.com Whatsapp: (+)86 13851435272 E-mail: admin@elephchem.com
