Competitive rivalry intensifies with H.B. Fuller, Sika AG, Hindustan Adhesives Limited and others operating in the market.

PVA is a colorless, nontoxic thermoplastic adhesive manufactured by the polymerization of vinyl acetate. PVA comprises a water-based emulsion of a widely used type such as white glue, wood glue, carpenter's glue, school glue, or PVA glue. Moreover, PVA adhesives produce transparent, hard films that have good weather resistance & withstand water, grease, oil, and petroleum fuels. In addition, it offers significant properties, including an invisible bond line, high initial tack, softening at 30–45 °C, poor resistance to creep under load, good biodegradation resistance, and low cost.

Furthermore, it is a nonstructural adhesive with low price, convenient usage and a wide range of applications. It has good adhesive power to different kinds of polar materials, mainly bonding different types of nonmetal materials, such as ceramic, glass, wood, fibre fabric and concrete. Moreover, its thermal stability is below 40 °C, and it has weak strength to solvent action, low water resistance and heavy creep, which is mainly adopted as a nonstructural adhesive for projects at room temperature.

Polyvinyl Acetate Adhesive Market Segmentation Analysis

By form, the market is segmented into organic solvent solution and water dispersion. By type, the market is segmented into polyvinyl alcohol, styrene-butadiene rubber, dummy melamine-formaldehyde resin, UV curable resins, epoxy resins, solvents, acrylic resins & plastics, melamine-formaldehyde resin and others. By application, the market is segmented into light-weight panels, latex house paints, doors, foil lamination, medical, solid wood lamination, leather and others. By end-user, the market is segmented into automotive, healthcare, construction, electronics, footwear, bedding & furniture, packaging and others.

The commonly used resin in water-dispersion form is polyvinyl acetate in copolymer and homopolymer variety. Moreover, polyvinyl acetate latex is the basis for the typical household white glue, of which Elmer’s® is probably the most commonly used. This type's products are suitable adhesives for paper, plastics, metal foil, leather, and cloth. In addition, their primary use is in packaging for flexible substrates and lagging adhesive to bond insulating fabric to ductwork and pipe in steamships and plants. It is also used in frozen-food packaging in which low-temperature flexibility is essential.

Furthermore, this adhesive is used to construct mobile homes to provide temporary bonds during construction until the units are supported on foundations. Also, it offers initial solid bonds that develop strength quickly. In addition, immediate strength and stiffness are needed to resist stress induced by racking and flexing of long mobile homes as moved within the factory during hauling & lifting at the construction site.
