The properties of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogels containing saccharides (D-xylose, D-fructose, D-glucose, and maltose) were examined. The effect of the addition of saccharides to PVA hydrogels on their melting temperatures was remarkable when the gels were chilled at 0Β°C with saccharide content

The melting temperature of the gels of the poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/ethylene glycol (EG) system was measured. It was found that the temperature was independent of the thermal hysteresis. The apparent enthalpy of the fusion of the junction, DH, was 206 kJ/mol for a high molecular weight atactic PVA
In this study, the relationship between the polymer-solvent interaction and the network structure of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) gels prepared with organic solvents such as N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) and ethylene glycol (EG) are investigated. The values of the intrinsic viscosity [ h] and Huggins const
The properties of solutions for syndiotacticity-rich poly(vinyl alcohol) (s-PVA)/dimethylformamide (DMF)/water systems, the gelation of the s-PVA solutions, and the properties of the dried s-PVA gel films were examined. From the results of the dissolution temperature of the polymer, the gelation tem
Radiation effects on the formation of conjugated double bonds in the thermal degradation of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) were investigated. Thin films of PVC and PVA were either irradiated with β₯-rays at ambient temperature (pre-irradiation) and then subjected to thermal
The effect of the dissolved state of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) molecules in water on the color development due to PVA-iodine complexes was investigated at each given PVA and iodine concentration using two kinds of syndiotactic-rich PVA (S-PVA) which are unstable in water because of the formation of
