Poly(vinyl acetate)

Addition polymer of vinyl acetate


Poly(vinyl acetate) has limited use as is, but partial hydrolysis in water
gives the polymer that "white glue" is made of.
Full hydrolysis to the alcohol gives us poly(vinyl alcohol),
a water-soluble and biocompatible material used in lots of stuff.
