Elvanol™ 90-50 by Kuraray is a fully hydrolyzed, medium-to-low viscosity polyvinyl alcohol. Provides high film strength and binding power in relatively low -viscosity systems. Offers oil-, grease-, water and solvent resistance. It combines efficient binding with excellent high shear rheology, controls backside lint and surface debris and provides superior holdout. It is compatible with modified starches. Used in adhesives for porous substrates including paper and paperboard, hot-water soluble film, and as a binder for pigments or other solid particles. It is particularly useful as a pigment binder for ceiling tile primers. Elvanol™ 90-50 complies with FDA regulation.
