Best Answer

I am just trying to find out the same thing. I know it's produced by reacting the monomer vinyl alcohol (CH2-CHOH) with acetic acid.

You can make PVA gl ue by adding flour water and mix it together and and put it in the fridge when you need it take it out of the fridge and add little water to it so it looks like it's running.


Yoo can also make pva glue by mixing flour and milk to make a thicker paste :D

low grade (craft or hobby glue);

edge- and face-gluing, bonding structural joints;

bonding plastic laminates etc;

can be coloured with dyes etc.

ready to use;

water can be added up to 5% to increase working time.

low to moderate resistance to heat, moisture, acids and solvents and good shock resistance;

will gradually degrade if exposed to UV light.

adequate strength;

low rigidity and creep resistance

fairly soft and workable;

can be cut with hand tools, machines well but loads paper when sanded;

reversible with water for 2 to 6 weeks after curing;

resist stains and finishes.

I hope this helps, i am 80% sure these are characteristics
