General comment Polyvinyl acetate is a synthetic resin prepared by the polymerization of vinyl acetate. It serves as the film-forming ingredient in water-based paints and is also used in adhesives. It is most widely used as an emulsion of PVAc polymers in water, formed by polymerization in water of vinyl monomers, predominantly vinyl acetate. It is white to off-white in color and is the familiar 'white glue' used in many households.
