To clean off polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) from lab glassware, first rinse the glassware with warm water to dissolve the PVA, as it is water-soluble. If residue remains, soak the glassware in a solution of warm water and a mild detergent for 15-30 minutes. After soaking, scrub with a soft brush or sponge to remove any stubborn residues, and then rinse thoroughly with water. Finally, allow the glassware to air dry or dry with a lint-free cloth.
