Description Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) is a vinyl based water soluble polymer that can be used as a non-ionic surface active agent. It can also be used as a biodegradable polymer and can be incorporated in adhesives, coatings, textiles, ceramics and cosmetics. Its properties include good transparency, chemical resistance, toughness and anti-electrostatic properties.

Application PVA can be used in a variety of s such as:
a blended membrane for separation of gases
a proton conducting membrane for the development of fuel cells
hydrogels in tissue engineering

Features And Benefits They can interact with or be dissolved by water or other polar substances.
