Overview
PVA is the standard grade of the PVA / PVOH family in the general-purpose plastics group. It is used in applications such as water-soluble detergent and agricultural film, paper and textile sizing agent, adhesives and emulsions. The grade with the right flow for injection, extrusion or another process is specified in the quotation together with your quantity and colour; TDS and SDS are sent with the quotation.
Typical properties
| Property | Typical value |
|---|---|
| Density | 1,19–1,31 g/cm³ |
| Melting point | 180–230 °C |
| Degree of hydrolysis | %87–99 |
| Solubility | Suda çözünür / water-soluble |
Tensile strength is measured to ISO 527, melt flow rate to ISO 1133, heat deflection temperature to ISO 75 (1.8 MPa); flammability class per UL94. Depending on supplier and grade, values can fall outside this range.
Applications
- Water-soluble detergent and agricultural film
- Paper and textile sizing agent
- Adhesives and emulsions
- 3D-printing support material
Documents
The supplier's technical data sheet (TDS) and safety data sheet (SDS) for PVA are sent by e-mail with the quoted grade; because the same code has different sheets at different suppliers we do not publish a single file on the site. To see the sheet in advance, request it with the link below.
