Aquazol® 5

Aquazol® is competitively priced and offers a desirable alternative to PVP (polyvinyl pyrrolidone) or PVOH (polßinyl alcohol) in virtually any application. Its thermal- processing capability makes it the preferred choice in high-temperature applications for instance, steel quench in metalworking and hot-melt adhesive products. It is one of the few water-soluble polymers that can be extruded. Aquazol also offers excellent performance as a greenware binder in ceramics, due to its clean burnout and non-ionic characteristics. It is Mil-Spec for highly-specialized ceramic bindings, such as those used in missiles' nose cones, and is FDA-approved for use as an indirect food additive (eg_ as packaging adhesive) under 21 CFR 175.105.
