Although polyvinyl alcohol is often referred to by the ] PVA, more generally PVA refers to ], which is commonly used as a wood adhesive and sealer.

==Uses==
PVA is used in a variety of medical applications because of its biocompatibility, low tendency for protein adhesion, and low toxicity. Specific uses include ] replacements, ]es, ]s and ]s.<ref>{{cite journal |vauthors = Baker MI, Walsh SP, Schwartz Z, Boyan BD |title = A review of polyvinyl alcohol and its uses in cartilage and orthopedic applications |journal = Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials |volume = 100 |issue = 5 |pages = 1451–7 |date = July 2012 |pmid = 22514196 |doi = 10.1002/jbm.b.32694 }}</ref> Polyvinyl alcohol is used as an aid in ]s.

PVA-based polymers are used widely in additive manufacturing. For example, 3D printed oral dosage forms demonstrate great potential in the pharmaceutical industry. It is possible to create drug-loaded tablets with modified drug-release characteristics where PVA is used as a binder substance.<ref>{{cite journal |vauthors = Xu X, Zhao J, Wang M, Wang L, Yang J |display-authors=3|title = 3D Printed Polyvinyl Alcohol Tablets with Multiple Release Profiles |journal = Scientific Reports |volume = 9 |issue = 1 |pages = 12487 |date = August 2019 |pmid = 31462744 |pmc = 6713737 |doi = 10.1038/s41598-019-48921-8 |bibcode=2019NatSR...912487X}}</ref>

PVA is commonly used in household sponges that absorb more water than ] sponges.{{citation needed|date=August 2024}}

===Polyvinyl acetals===
Polyvinyl ] are prepared by treating PVA with ]s. ] and ] afford ] (PVB) and ] (PVF), respectively. Preparation of polyvinyl butyral is the largest use for polyvinyl alcohol in the US and Western Europe.

==Preparation==
Unlike most ]s, PVA is not prepared by ] of the corresponding ], since the monomer, ], is thermodynamically unstable with respect to its ]ization to ]. Instead, PVA is prepared by hydrolysis of polyvinyl acetate,<ref name=Ullmann>{{Ullmann |first1=Manfred L. |last1=Hallensleben| name-list-style = vanc |title=Polyvinyl Compounds, Others |year=2000 |doi=10.1002/14356007.a21_743}}</ref> or sometimes other vinyl ester-derived polymers with ] or ] groups instead of acetate. The conversion of the polyvinyl esters is usually conducted by base-catalysed ] with ethanol:
: <sub>''n''</sub> + C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>5</sub>OH → <sub>''n''</sub> + C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>5</sub>OAc

The properties of the polymer are affected by the degree of transesterification.

Worldwide consumption of polyvinyl alcohol was over one million metric tons in 2006.<ref name="sri"/> Large producers include ] and ], while mainland China has installed a number of very large production facilities in the past decade{{clarify|date=June 2021}} and currently accounts for 45% of world capacity.

==Structure and properties==
PVA is an ] material that exhibits ]linity. In terms of microstructure, it is composed mainly of 1,3-diol linkages , but a few percent of 1,2-diols occur, depending on the conditions for the polymerization of the vinyl ester precursor.<ref name=Ullmann/>

Polyvinyl alcohol has excellent film-forming, ] and ] properties. It is also resistant to oil, grease and ]s. It has high tensile strength and flexibility, as well as high oxygen and aroma barrier properties. However, these properties are dependent on ]: water absorbed at higher humidity levels acts as a ], which reduces the polymer's tensile strength, but increases its elongation and tear strength.

==Safety and environmental considerations==
Polyvinyl alcohol is widely used, thus its toxicity and biodegradation are of interest. Tests showed that fish (guppies) are not harmed, even at a poly(vinyl alcohol) concentration of 500 mg/L of water.<ref name=Ullmann/>

There are several different grades of PVA depending on the degrees of polymerization and hydrolysis, which will affect their physical and chemical properties as well as their biodegradability.<ref name=Ullmann/> Aqueous solutions of PVA degrade faster, which is why PVA grades that are highly water-soluble tend to have a faster biodegradation.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Kawai F, Hu X | title = Biochemistry of microbial polyvinyl alcohol degradation | journal = Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology | volume = 84 | issue = 2 | pages = 227–37 | date = August 2009 | pmid = 19590867 | doi = 10.1007/s00253-009-2113-6 | s2cid = 25068302 }}</ref> Not all PVA grades are readily biodegradable, but studies show that high water-soluble PVA grades such as the ones used in detergents can be readily biodegradable according to OECD
