Uses

Other uses of polyvinyl alcohol include:

    Injection moulding of soluble containers for active release of detergents and agrichemicals
    Paper adhesive with boric acid in spiral tube winding and solid board production
    Thickener, modifier, in polyvinyl acetate glues
    Textile sizing agent
    Paper coatings, release liner
    As a water-soluble film useful for packaging. An example is the envelope containing laundry detergent in "liqui-tabs".
