Today, I will talk about the characteristics and roles related to the adhesive of polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl alcohol acetal.

1. Polyvinyl alcohol adhesive:
Polyvinyl alcohol is made by hydrolysis of polyvinyl acetate and has a white or slightly yellowish flocculent or powdery appearance. Polyvinyl alcohol low concentration adhesive has good adhesion, low price, easy to prepare, but high solids content solution is not easy to formulate, curing speed is slower. Polyvinyl alcohol adhesive can be prepared according to the following method: polyvinyl alcohol is added to water in the proportion of 5% to 10%, the water temperature is 80-100 ° C, stirred until all dissolved, making a light yellow and white transparent liquid. Polyvinyl alcohol aqueous solution can be used to bond paper, fabric, wood, etc., and is also widely used in various stucco mortars.
2. Polyvinyl alcohol acetal adhesive:
Polyvinyl alcohol acetal is made of polyvinyl alcohol and aldehyde as the main raw material, which is condensed under acidic conditions. The properties of polyvinyl acetals depend on the molecular weight of polyvinyl alcohol, the degree of alcohol solution, the chemical structure of the aldehydes used, and the degree of acetalization reaction. In general, the longer the carbon chain of the aldehydes in the raw material, the higher the toughness and elasticity of the resin, but the heat resistance is reduced. The water solubility of polyvinyl alcohol acetal depends on the degree of polycondensation, and when the degree of acetal is 50%, it can be made into an aqueous solution. When the acetal content is very high, it can only be dissolved in organic solvents. Low acetal degree of polyvinyl alcohol formaldehyde in water solubility is very high, is a odorless, non-toxic, tasteless transparent aqueous solution, commonly known as 107 glue, used as wallpaper, wall cloth adhesive. It can also be incorporated into cement mortar for tiles, mosaics, interior floor coatings, interior wall coatings. Polyvinyl butyral has good toughness, fire resistance, moisture resistance, mainly used for the bonding of inorganic glass, the manufacture of multi-layer bonding safety glass (laminated glass). Plasticizers are added to polyvinyl butyral to make a colorless and transparent film.
The PVAc resin developed and produced by Tianyuan Polymer is a white solid powder of high temperature resistant polyvinyl alcohol acetal. The product is non-toxic, harmless, non-corrosive resin, with good physical and chemical properties such as weather resistance, high transparency, good insulation, film formation and impact resistance at low temperatures, and can resist inorganic acid hydrocarbons and ultraviolet rays, cold resistance, water resistance, aging resistance of excellent performance.
Among them, the high temperature resistance type I has good filmmaking, the formed coating film has the characteristics of high transparency, elasticity, toughness, acid resistance and oil resistance, etc., at the same time, it has excellent continuity for glass, metal, ceramics, etc., in addition, the jade ink industry, pigments and dyes have good dispersion.
High resistance type II thermal stability is good, high transparency, can be applied in heat-resistant coatings, copper clad plate adhesives, inks, dye transfer ribbon ink, no imitation cloth adhesives, safety helmets, safety helmets, reflector adhesives, pressure adhesive adhesives, ceramic adhesives and other aspects of the use.
