Polyvinyl Alcohol PVA for Cold Water Soluble Film
InnoNew® Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) is a key material in the production of cold water soluble and biodegradable films, widely used in packaging, agriculture, and consumer products.
With increasing global demand for eco-friendly materials, PVA film has become a preferred solution due to its excellent film-forming properties, solubility in water, and environmental compatibility.
At Hebei InnoNew Material Technology Co., Ltd., we supply high-quality PVA grades such as PVA 2488 & PVA 2688, suitable for film production with stable viscosity, strong film strength, and consistent processing performance. InnoNew® PVA 2488 is specially designed for water-soluble film applications, featuring ideal polymerization and alcoholysis degrees that ensure fast, complete dissolution in both cold and warm water with no residue. It offers excellent film-forming properties, producing films that are strong, flexible, transparent, and smooth, with stable viscosity and high purity to guarantee consistent processing and reliable performance in mass production. Meanwhile, it provides outstanding oxygen, oil, and aroma barrier properties in dry conditions, while being non-toxic, eco-friendly, and fully biodegradable. With stable batch quality and reliable supply, our PVA 2488 is the high-quality choice for manufacturing high-performance water-soluble films.
