KURARAY POVAL™ 49-88 by Kuraray is a partially saponified polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) grade. This grade is water-soluble polymer manufactured by alcoholysis of polyvinyl acetate. It is used as an adhesive promoter. It is suitable for modification of emulsion adhesives and remoistenable adhesives in the paper processing industry. It is used in postage stamps and labels. Aqueous solution of KURARAY POVAL™ 49-88 can be added to polymer emulsion which is already stabilized with polyvinyl alcohol to extend the open time, increase setting speed and influence the rheology. Its shelf life is 12 months. Complies with EU Directive 67/548/EC regulation.

Kuraray Poval™ LM-10HD by Kuraray is an ultra-low saponified polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) grade. This grade is water-soluble polymer manufactured by alcoholysis of polyvinyl acetate. It is used as an adhesive promoter. It is suitable for modification of emulsion adhesives and remoistenable adhesives in the paper processing industry. It is used in postage stamps and labels. Aqueous solution of KURARAY POVAL™ LM-10 HD can be added to polymer emulsion which is already stabilized with polyvinyl alcohol to extend the open time, increase setting speed and influence the rheology. It can be stored for 12 months. Complies with EU Directive 67/548/EC regulation.

KURARAY POVAL™ 22-88 is a partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) grade by Kuraray. It exhibits good bonding strength and pigment binding capacity. It offers good cohesion and adhesion to fibers, fillers and pigments. It is designed for modification of emulsion adhesives and remoistenable adhesives in the paper processing industry. It is used as an adhesive promoter. It can be added to polymer emulsion to extend the open time, increase setting speed and influence the rheology. KURARAY POVAL™ 22-88 is recommended for use in postage stamps and labels.

KURARAY POVAL™ 5-82 (Old name: Poval® PVA 405) by Kuraray is polyvinyl alcohol. It exhibits specific colloid-chemical and excellent film-forming properties, and a high tensile strength. In addition, the polymers are highly elastic and resistant to heat and organic solvents. KURARAY POVAL™ 5-82 is used as a component of remoistenable adhesives, e.g. for postage stamps, partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol grades ensure that the adhesive strength is not impaired even in fluctuating air humidity. Above all, the range of applications is based on the chemical properties, especially on the reactivity of the numerous hydroxyl groups with substances such as reactive resins, aldehydes and other reactive compounds.
