About PVA (Polyvinyl Alcohol)
PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) is a synthetic polymer produced by hydrolyzing polyvinyl acetate, valued for its water-solubility, film-forming properties, and biodegradability. Primary applications include packaging films, textile sizing, adhesives, emulsifiers, and water-soluble detergent pods. Internationally traded grades are differentiated by hydrolysis degree (87–99%) and viscosity (low to high), with common specifications being 1788, 2488, and 4–88 grades. Major producers and exporters include China, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, with China dominating global supply. Buyers should verify hydrolysis percentage and viscosity certifications rigorously, as these parameters critically affect end-product performance; non-compliance is common in lower-cost shipments and directly impacts film strength and solubility characteristics.
