Examples in Context

  1. Vinyl acetate monomer ( VAM ) is the largest end use for acetic acid. Acetic acid's future growth is tied largely to VAM manufacture and to a lesser extent to TPA manufacture in Asia.
  2. Research of copolymerization reaction of vinyl acetate and monomer
  3. Vinyl acetate and butyl acrylate as mixed monomer can be used to prepare high solid content water based white emulsion.
  4. This article has described the soap-free copolymerization with vinyl acetate ( VAc ) as basic monomer and acrylic acid ( AA ) as modification functional monomer, forming a stable emulsion with 30 % solid.
  5. Ethylene - vinyl acetate ( EVA ) / ethylene propylene diene monomer ( EPDM ) / poly-vinyl chloride ( PVC ) ternary plastic alloy non-rigid foam was produced by physical blending and chemical crosslinking moulding foaming process.
