The type of PVA frequently used in construction paint is PVA 1788 and PVA 1799.
Polyvinyl alcohol is obtained by the hydrolysis of polyvinyl acetate, it can not be obtained directly from the polymerization of vinyl alcohol, because vinyl alcohol is very unstable. Free vinyl alcohol monomer can not be existed.
The molecular formula weight of PVA is (C2H4O)x. Its physical properties can be greatly affected by the degree of hydrolysis and polymerization degree. Its degree of polymerization of polyvinyl alcohol can be divided into high degree, medium degree and low degree of polymerization. Recently a new kind of products with ultra-high degree of polymerization is developed. There are usually three kinds of hydrolysis degrees, that is 78%, 88% and 98%. 98%-100% is complete alcoholysis PVA, 87%-89% is part alcoholysis PVA. PVA1788 usually means the polymerization degree is 1700 while the hydrolysis degree is 88%. PVA 1799 means the polymerization degree is 1800 while the hydrolysis degree is 99%
Polyvinyl alcohol solution of complete alcohol solution is 98 % to 100% , alcoholysis alcoholysis is usually part of 87% to 89% , in order to facilitate said polymerization degree often take hundreds and thousands digits on the front, the percentage of alcohol solution of the behind , thus PVA-1788 means that the degree of polymerization of 1700 , degree of hydrolysis of 88%, PVA-1799 indicates a degree of polymerization of 1700 , degree of hydrolysis of 99 %. PVA 1788 is partly alcoholyzed product while PVA1799 is completely alcoholyzed product.
Then what is partly alcoholysis and what is complete alcoholysis? Complete alcoholysis means this kind of PVA will not be soluble unless the heat is up to 95 degree. While for partly alcoholyzed PVA, it can be soluble when the temperature is 85 degree.
