    Glossary Polyvinyl Alcohol

    synthetic polymer that dissolves in water and forms films

    Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) is a synthetic polymer that is water-soluble and commonly used in a variety of applications, including adhesives, textile sizing, and as a film-forming agent in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. It is known for its excellent film-forming, emulsifying, and adhesive properties, making it useful in both industrial and consumer products.
