General properties

Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM) is miscible with ethanol, soluble in ether, acetone, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride and other organic solvents, insoluble in water. It is easily polymerized into a transparent solid by the action of heat, light or trace amounts of peroxide. Usually hydroquinone or diphenylamine is added as a stabilizer, and the storage time of pure products without stabilizers should not exceed 24h.iscible with ethanol, soluble in ether, acetone, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride and other organic solvents, insoluble in water. It is easily polymerized into a transparent solid by the action of heat, light or trace amounts of peroxide. 

Applications

Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM) is the main raw material for the manufacture of synthetic fiber vinylon. Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM) is polymerized by itself or copolymerized with fractionated monomers to obtain polyvinyl alcohol, vinyl acetate-ethylene copolymer (EVA), vinyl acetate-vinyl chloride copolymer (EVC), vinyl acetate-acrylonitrile fiber, vinyl acetate-acrylate copolymer. They all have important industrial uses, widely used as binders, architectural coatings, textile sizing and finishing agents, paper reinforcements, and for the manufacture of safety glass.

Vinyl acetate reacts with ethanol and bromine to prepare bromoacetaldehyde diethanol. This is an intermediate of the drug methiimidazole.

Packages

Package: In 190KG drum or 22MT ISO Tank.

Storage

Usually hydroquinone or diphenylamine is added as a stabilizer, and the storage time of pure products without stabilizers should not exceed 24h.

  • Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA)

    Overview Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA for short), organic compound, white flake, flocculent or powdered solid, non-toxic, tasteless, pollution-free, can be dissolved in 80--90 °C water. Slightly soluble in dimethyl sulfoxide. Its aqueous solution has good adhesion and film-forming properties; It has chemical properties such as esterification, etherification and acetalation of long-chain polyols. It is a water-soluble polymer with a wide range of uses, its performance is between plastic and rubber, and its uses can be divided into fiber and non-fiber two major uses.

  • VAE Emulsion (Vinyl acetate-ethylene copolymer emulsion)

    Overview VAE emulsion is short for ethylene acetate-ethylene copolymerization emulsion, which is a polymer emulsion made of ethylene acetate and ethylene monomer as the basic raw materials and other auxiliary materials through emulsion polymerization.Ethylene and vinyl acetate copolymer is the most important product of ethylene copolymer, generally referred to as EVA. According to the different contents of ethylene acetate, the copolymers of ethylene and ethylene acetate were divided into EVA resin, EVA rubber and VAE emulsion.Products containing less than 40% vinyl acetate are EVA resins. Products with a vinyl acetate content of 40%~70% are flexible and elastic, so they are also called EVA rubber. Products with ethylene acetate content in the range of 70%~95% are usually in the emulsion state, called VAE emulsions.

  • PVOH (PVC Grade)

    Overview Modified polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) is graded according to different degrees of polymerization, hydrolysis and copolymerization monomers. The modification of PVA is mainly to use the double bonds, ester groups and the chemical activity of the hydroxyl group after alcoholization of vinyl acetate to change the side chain group or structure, and introduce other monomers to become copolymers dominated by PVA.

  • Water Soluble PVA Fiber
