Product Description

Poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) is a widely used thermoplastic polymer known for its adhesion properties, flexibility, and water resistance. It is synthesized via free-radical polymerization of vinyl acetate and has a Tg of ~28-32°C, making it useful in emulsions and coatings.

Applications:

Adhesives: Main component in wood glues, paper adhesives, and emulsion-based formulations.
Coatings & Paints: Provides film-forming properties in architectural coatings.
Binder for Textiles & Paper: Used in fabric finishing and coatings.
