description Product Description
Used as a water-soluble film in packaging, especially for detergents and agrochemicals, due to its ability to dissolve in water and reduce plastic waste. Commonly employed in textile sizing to strengthen yarns during weaving and improve weaving efficiency. Applied in paper coatings to enhance printability, surface strength, and resistance to oil and grease. Widely used in adhesives for packaging, woodworking, and labels because of its strong bonding and water-based formulation. Utilized in construction materials like cement and plaster as a binder and film former to improve workability and adhesion. Found in medical and pharmaceutical applications such as wound dressings, contact lenses, and drug delivery systems due to its biocompatibility and non-toxic nature. Also serves as a thickener, emulsifier, and stabilizer in cosmetics and personal care products.
