Industrial uses
PVA 0588 is a tough, whitish polymerthat can be formed into strong films, tubes, andfibers that are highly resistant to hydrocarbonsolvents.
Although PVA 0588 is one ofthe few water-soluble polymers, it can be renderedinsoluble in water by drawing or by theuse of cross-linking agents.
Production Methods
PVA 0588 is produced through the hydrolysis of polyvinyl acetate.
The repeating unit of vinyl alcohol is not used as the starting material because PVA 0588 cannot be obtained in the quantities and purity required for polymerization purposes.
The hydrolysis proceeds rapidly in methanol, ethanol, or a mixture of alcohol and methyl acetate, using alkalis or mineral acids as catalysts.
