Development concept of Nichigo G-Polymer™
Revolutionary new polymer, Butendiol Vinyl Alcohol co-Polymer "BVOH"
Nichigo G-Polymer™ which can be used to freely control crystallinity and the cohesive
power of the non-crystalline part is the next generation of vinyl alcohol resins.
In addition to
outstanding transparency and solvent resistance, through the combination of “low crystallinity” with “high
hydrogen bonding strength”, which are traits that are ordinarily in conflict, this new material realizes
functions that had not been possible with conventional PVOH. These include low melting points, high
stretching characteristics and high gas barrier performance, as well as low foaming, aqueous solution
stability and emulsification performance.
