Polyvinyl butyral is an amorphous thermoplastic which is produced through a condensation process of butyraldehyde and polyvinyl alcohol. This resin provides effective film-forming, better adhesion properties, improved flexibility, and good withstanding capabilities against UV rays. Further, its compatibility with plasticizers and binders and solubility in solvents depend on the degree of polymerization and acetalisation. Higher presence of butyral groups improves water resistance capabilities of the polymer in the polyvinyl butyral films. It can further be cross-linked depending with multiple resins including epoxy, melamine, and phenolic resins which in turn produce high quality solvent resistant films and coatings.
The polyvinyl brutyral find its application across glass, sheets, adhesives paintings & coatings. Its capability to exhibit good adhesion properties by bonding with fractured glass splinters which sticks to the surface and prevents injury from sharp and large glass fragments. It further offers a good impact resistance, complete absorption of UV rays, and improves sound barrier & noise cancellation quality.
Its raw material such as butyraldehyde and polyvinyl alcohol, are obtained from petroleum and carbon compound. Price Volatility associated with its raw material significantly impacts the price of the product, which is turn is poised to sway the industry growth. Although, its growing demand across automobile and construction sector is projected to stimulate the industry upsurge over the forecasted timeframe.
