Introduction
Molecular Formula: [C2H4O]n
Molecular Weight: 44.05 (monomer)
CAS No.:9002-89-5 (monomer)
Polyvinyl alcohol is a white solid, and its appearance is divided into flocculent, granular, and powdery; it is non-toxic, tasteless, and pollution-free, and can be dissolved in water at 80-90°C. Its aqueous solution has good adhesion and film-forming properties; it can withstand most organic solvents such as oils, lubricants and hydrocarbons,has chemical properties such as esterification, etherification and acetalization of long-chain polyols.
