PVA PVOH POVAL

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is widely used in the paper industry due to its excellent film-forming and adhesive properties. PVA is typically used in the paper manufacturing process as a binder, coating agent, or surface sizing agent. Here are some common applications of PVA in the paper industry:   1.Surface Sizing: PVA is used as a surface sizing agent to improve the surface properties of paper, such as its smoothness, printability, and water resistance. It forms a thin film on the surface of the paper, reducing the penetration of liquids and improving the ink receptivity.   2. Binder for Coatings: PVA is used as a binder in the formulation of coatings applied to paper surfaces. It helps in binding pigments and other additives to the paper, enhancing the color retention, gloss, and overall performance of the coatings.   3. Adhesive for Paperboard: PVA is utilized as an adhesive in the production of paperboard and cardboard boxes. It provides excellent adhesion between the layers of paper, improving the overall strength and durability of the packaging materials.   4. Release Agent: PVA can be used as a release agent in the paper industry. It is applied to the surfaces of rollers and machinery to prevent sticking and improve the smooth flow of paper during the production process.   5. Fiber Treatment: PVA can be applied to paper fibers to improve their bonding properties and enhance the paper's strength and tear resistance.   It's important to note that the specific grade of PVA used in the paper industry may vary depending on the desired properties and requirements of the paper or paperboard being produced.   Website: www.elephchem.com Whatsapp: (+)86 13851435272 E-mail: admin@elephchem.com ElephChem Holding Limited, professional market expert in Polyvinyl Alcohol(PVA) and Vinyl Acetate–ethylene Copolymer Emulsion(VAE) with strong recognition and excellent plant facilities of international standards.
