One of the most commonly used polymers as an adhesive, Polyvinyl Acetate is a shear sensitive liquid that can harden when not moving. Viking Pumps are able to handle PVAc as the pumps are low shear and promote consistent fluid circulation.Polyvinyl Acetate, or PVAc, is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, non-toxic, transparent, thermoplastic solid. It is used in latex water paints, in hot melt and other types of adhesives, for coating and finishing fabrics, as a component of lacquers, inks and in caulking compounds and chewing gum. PVAc is insoluble in water, oils and fats, but soluble in alcohols, esters, benzene and ketones. The most common PVAc applications include Transfer of process intermediaries or finished product.Suggested Pumps for Polyvinyl Acetate Processing1124A SERIESCast IronAbrasive resistant materials & sealing optionLow shearCapacities to 400 GPM4124A SERIESCast IronCartridge lipseal sealing optionsCapacities to 500 GPM4127A SERIES316 Stainless SteelCartridge lipseal sealing optionsCapacities to 320 GPM Download Polyvinyl Acetate Pumps BrochureWatch Viking Pump Polyvinyl Acetate Solutions Video [1] Information Source: Viking Pump
