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, improving efficiency and reducing breakage. Applied in paper coatings to enhance printability, surface strength, and resistance to oil and grease. Widely used in adhesives for paper and cardboard because of its strong bonding, non-toxic nature, and biodegradability. Utilized in construction as a component in cement and plaster formulations to improve workability, adhesion, and water retention. Found in eye drops and contact lens solutions as a lubricant and moisturizing agent due to its biocompatibility and film-forming properties. Employed in biomedical and pharmaceutical applications such as wound dressings, drug delivery systems, and as a binder in tablets and coated tablets, where controlled release and biodegradation are required. Used in 3D printing as a dissolvable support material that can be easily removed after printing. Found in cleaning products, such as sponges impregnated with cleaning agents, for improved adhesion and water absorption. Also used in emulsion polymerization as a stabilizer and protective colloid.
