Polyvinyl alcohol pva is produced through the hydrolysis of polyvinyl acetate. Molar volume v m. Find compounds which resemble this structure. Polyvinyl alcohol pva a colourless water soluble synthetic resin employed principally in the treating of textiles and paper.
Molecular weight of repeat unit. Stars this entity has been manually annotated by the chebi team. Pva is unique among polymers chemical compounds made up of large multiple unit molecules in that it is not built up in polymerization reactions from single unit precursor molecules known as monomers. The repeating unit of vinyl alcohol is not used as the starting material because it is unstable and cannot be isolated.

Poly vinyl acetate information structure and properties. Poly vinyl alcohol is a synthetic polymer bearing repeating ch 2 ch oh units which is generally prepared from post polymerization reaction of a homopolymer obtained from a protected monomer such as vinyl acetate. Vinyl acetate ch 2 cho 2 cch 3 is prepared from ethylene by reaction with oxygen and acetic acid over a palladium catalyst under the action of free radical initiators vinyl acetate monomers single unit molecules can be linked into long branched polymers large multiple unit molecules in which the structure of the vinyl acetate repeating units is.
