Korea packaging center korea institute of industrial technology bucheon south korea. Ftir spectra of a thermoplastic starch ethylene vinyl alcohol blend sample te and b thermoplastic starch ethylene vinyl alcohol blend containing 2 wt vitamin e sample tev. It is colourless white and odorless. Poly vinyl alcohol pvoh pva or pval is a water soluble synthetic polymer it has the idealized formula ch 2 ch oh n it is used in papermaking textile warp sizing as a thickener and emulsion stabilizer in pvac adhesive formulations and a variety of coatings.

Because of the instability of vinyl alcohol the thermoplastic polyvinyl alcohol pva or pvoh. Grades include both fully hydrolyzed and partially hydrolyzed products. Pvoh materials can now act as a more effective replacement for the ethylene vinyl alcohol polymers currently used as oxygen barrier layers for food packaging. Thermogravimetric tg analysis and differential scanning calorimetry dsc measurements were also conducted to examine the role of vitamin e in preventing thermal degradation of tps during the production process.

Poly vinyl alcohol is commercially available in granular and powdered form. Examples of potential food packaging uses are ketchup bottles presently pp evoh pp and enhanced shelf. This product is a colorless or pale yellow transparent granular aggregates the moisture proof and topical paper plastic bag lined with plastic bag packaging 25 kg bag sealed packaging at room temperature the product warranty for two years. Vinyl alcohol also called ethenol iupac name is the simplest enol.

With the formula c h 2 choh it is a labile compound that converts to acetaldehyde. It is commonly supplied as beads or as solutions in water. The resistance of pvoh to non polar organic solvents will also protect foodstuffs from secondary contamination by printing inks etc. Physical and mechanical properties of plasticized butenediol vinyl alcohol copolymer thermoplastic starch blend.
