  • A brief discussion on the control measures for the viscosity of PVB resin
    May 19, 2025
    The scientific name of PVB resin is polyvinyl butyral resin. It was successfully industrialized in the United States in the 1930s and has a history of more than 70 years. my country has been trying to industrialize it since the 1960s, but due to the sensitivity of raw materials and process parameters, the product quality fluctuates greatly. The few finished products can only meet military purposes. It was not until the 1990s that a small amount of PVB (B-06HX &PVB B-20HX) products entered the civilian market.   Due to the different processes of PVB manufacturers, the requirements for PVB quality indicators are also different. Not only are there certain restrictions on the viscosity range, but there are also clear requirements for many indicators such as acetalization degree, tensile strength, and film-forming properties. Therefore, it is very easy to make PVB resin. However, it is quite difficult to make products that satisfy users. In order to produce PVB resins that meet user needs and improve the qualified rate of products, the following countermeasures should be taken:   Carefully select raw materials PVA PVA has a variety of models (such as PVA 088-50 & PVA 2488, Mowiol 47-88), not only with different degrees of polymerization, but also with different degrees of alcoholysis. To figure out how much acetalization you need, pick a PVA that meets the viscosity requirements. Try to keep the process conditions the same so that the product quality stays good without putting in extra effort. Process control programming At present, the production of China PVB resin adopts two-step precipitation method, kettle operation, and intermittent production. The production control is mainly manual control, which is quite arbitrary, especially the viscosity of PVB. The viscosity changes greatly with a slight change in the process.It's a good idea to use a DCS control system for making PVB resin. Stick to a programmed operation and keep the process steps pretty much the same for each customer. Strict finished product management It is best to adopt order-based production, and deliver it to customers in time after production is completed. Products that have not been delivered to customers must be placed separately and must not be mixed. For products that have been parked in the warehouse for more than one month, re-sampling and analysis are required before leaving the factory to prevent degradation of PVB resin powder. Disposal of unqualified products Some products may not meet the requirements of a certain user for individual indicators, but there is no problem with the quality of the batch of products itself. The usual practice is to find users with the same or similar quality as the batch of products and make appropriate treatments based on the degree of compliance. If the same products can be sent directly to the user, if the same products are not met, measures such as return package and add can be taken. Products with quality problems can only be sold as waste or destroyed.   Website: www.elephchem.com Whatsapp: (+)86 13851435272 E-mail: admin@elephchem.com

  • The difference between polyvinyl alcohol 1788 and 2488
    May 15, 2025
    Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is an important chemical raw material, used to make polyvinyl acetal, gasoline-resistant pipes and vinylon synthetic fibers, fabric treatment agents, emulsifiers, paper coatings, adhesives, glues, etc.     Different grades Polyvinyl alcohol is obtained by hydrolysis of polyvinyl acetate, but not directly by polymerization of vinyl alcohol. Because vinyl alcohol is extremely unstable, it is impossible to have free vinyl alcohol monomers.   Different degree of polymerization There are generally three kinds of alcoholysis degree, namely 78%, 88%, and 98%. Completely hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol is obtained by hydrolyzing polyvinyl acetate with a degree of hydrolysis of 98% to 100%. The degree of hydrolysis of partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol is generally 87% to 89%. To keep things simple, the numbers for polymerization are usually listed first, followed by the percentage of hydrolysis. So, PVA-1788 (Poval 217) means it has a polymerization degree of 1700 and a hydrolysis degree of 88%.   Different water solubility PVA-1788 is well soluble in water and can be quickly dissolved in cold water or in boiling water. The viscosity of PVA-2488 (Mowiol 47-88) is 1.5-2 times that of 1788 (different manufacturers' grades). The dissolution process of 2488 is longer than that of 1788, and its tensile force after dissolution is greater than that of 1788.   Website: www.elephchem.com Whatsapp: (+)86 13851435272 E-mail: admin@elephchem.com
