Vae Emulsoid Powder Poly Ethylene Co Vinyl Acetate

We manufacture these high performance emulsions in all three major regions of the world at our facilities throughout north america europe and asia.

Vae emulsoid powder poly ethylene co vinyl acetate.

Vinyl acetate ethylene powders are produced from copolymerization of vinyl acetate and ethylene where the vinyl acetate is a major content falling in the range of 60 and 95 and the ethylene content in the range of 5 and 40 of the total formulation. Vinyl acetate ethylene co polymer emulsions vae are one of the youngest children in the family of emulsion polymers. The eva copolymer which is based on a medium proportion of va approximately 4 to 30 is referred to as thermoplastic ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer and is a thermoplastic elastomer material. Elite mainly produce redispersible polymer powder as below.

Vaes offer unique moisture resistance flexibility improved tack and adhesion in low temperature and wet conditions. Vinyl acetate ethylene copolymer emulsion vae powder elite redispersible polymer powder is produced by spray drying special water based emulsion mostly based on vinyl acetate and ethylene. Vinyl acetate ethylene vae copolymers are formed by the copolymerization of vinyl acetate and ethylene. Celanese emulsion polymers is a global leader in vinyl acetate ethylene vae emulsions.

Initial experiments to introduce ethylene as monomer into the emulsion polymerization were done in 1950s and vae was made commercial available in the late 1960s 1. This new type of co polymer emulsions took a while to become successful outside of niche markets and on global scale. It has some of the properties of a low density polyethylene but increased gloss useful for film softness and flexibility. Vinyl acetate ethylene copolymer vae powder market size will experience considerable growth in asia pacific owing to its rising demand from construction industry in the forecast timeframe.

The material is generally considered non toxic. Vaes are water based emulsions also sold in powder form construction adhesives.
