Ferulated Poly(vinyl alcohol) based hydrogels
New graft copolymers were prepared by reaction of poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with mono-imidazolide or bis-imidazolide derivatives of ferulic acid (FA) with the formation of ester bonds. The obtained graft copolymers, thanks to the crosslinking capability

Biodegradability of Oxidized Poly(vinyl alcohol) [PDF]
Poly(vinyl alcohol) dehydrogenase (PVADH) purified from Pseudomonas sp. 113P3 catalyzed an oxidation of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) in the presence of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) to give a beta-diketone structure on PVA. Although PVADH oxidized not only enzymatically oxidized PVA but also chemically oxidized PVA, PVA-degrading microorganisms ...

Poly(vinyl alcohol)/poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) hydrogels for the cleaning of art [PDF]
The cleaning of modern and contemporary paintings is a delicate and challenging operation. Many contemporary paintings exhibit rough, clotted and pitted surfaces, where the removal of soil is difficult. Gels are among the most efficient tools to achieve controlled and efficient cleaning of works of art.

Long Branching in Poly(vinyl acetate) and Poly(vinyl alcohol). V. Determination of the Long-Chain Branching in Poly(vinyl alcohol). [PDF]
Long branching in poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) was quantitatively determined from measurements of the intrinsic viscosity and gel-permeation chromato-graphy of derived poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) according to Kurata’s method. The average number of branch points per unit molecular weight, λ3, was observed to lie in the range of 10−6—10−5 for PVA obtained ...

Effect of Chain Extender and Banana Fiber on Melt-Processing Properties of Poly (vinyl alcohol) [PDF]
This research aims to study the effect of chain extender and banana fiber on melt processing of poly (vinyl alcohol). 0 and 5 %w/w of banana fiber and 0, 2 and 4 %w/w of chain extender were melt-blended with poly (vinyl alcohol) in an internal mixer at ...

Reduction of V4+ from V5+ using polymer as a surfactant for electrochemical applications
Vanadium dioxide nanowires and nanobelts were synthesized from vanadium pentoxide xerogel through a hydrothermal process. V5+ was reduced to V4+ by a polyblend of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) and poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA), and by poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA).
