Chemical Properties Of Polyvinyl Alcohol Cas 9002-89-5

Polyvinyl alcohol (MF: C2H4O, MW: 44.05256) is a solid that appears as a white powder, flakes, or fluff. Based on its degree of polymerization, it can be classified into ultra-high molecular weight (250,000–300,000), high molecular weight (170,000–220,000), medium-polymerization (molecular weight 120,000–150,000), and low-polymerization (molecular weight 25,000–35,000)
PVA exhibits chemical stability and resistance to mineral oils, fats, and weak acids and bases; it degrades in strong acids and softens in strong bases, and is reactive in ester exchange reactions. Its aqueous solution forms a tough, transparent, and elastic film upon drying; it possesses excellent adhesion to porous materials (paper, fibers, wood).
