It’s particularly useful in sunscreen as it has impressive UV resistance and helps block the sun’s UVA and UVB rays from reaching your skin (6Trusted Source).
Because beauty should never come at the price of your health.
Polyvinyl butyral (PVB) is dissolved into 12 ~ 14% solution with ethanol and made into film. It is used for printing paper film of ceramic (or enamel) products. The fired ceramic (or enamel) patterns have bright color and smooth texture. The flower paper is characterized by convenient use, low cost, smaller than the original glue, greatly reducing the decal process and high color burning rate. At present, most porcelain factories in China have formed relatively formal production lines for standardized production. Therefore, the demand for PVB in the ceramic (or enamel) flower paper industry is increasing.
Application field of polyvinyl butyral -- electronic adhesive
Polyvinyl butyral contains hydroxyl, vinyl acetate and butyraldehyde, which has high bonding properties. Phenolic Resin was added into PVB ethanol solution to make adhesive, which can be used for a long time at 120 ℃. The product has strong adhesion to metal, wood, leather, glass, fiber and ceramics; FRP can be manufactured to replace non-ferrous metals such as steel, aluminum and copper; The adhesive made by adding this product and curing agent into epoxy resin is often used for bonding and assembly of electronic instrument components, bonding between metal and porous materials, emergency repair, etc. it can also be used in the field of electronic ceramics. In the development of ceramic integrated electronic circuits, this product with medium viscosity and low hydroxyl is used as ceramic powder adhesive to increase the primary strength of ceramics.
Application field of polyvinyl butyral -- copper foil adhesive
Polyvinyl butyral (PVB) and phenolic resin cooperate to produce copper foil adhesive, which is used in the production of copper clad laminate. It has good peel strength and tin welding temperature resistance, and is widely used in various fields.
Application field of polyvinyl butyral - self adhesive enamelled wire paint
Polyvinyl butyral is the main raw material of self-adhesive enamelled wire paint. After the enameled wire is wound and formed in the electrodes of motors, electrical appliances and instruments, as long as it is heated for several minutes at a certain temperature or treated with appropriate solvent, the coils can be bonded together by themselves without impregnation and drying.
In a 2021, Chinese researchers examined the impact of E171 on lipid digestion and vitamin D3 bioaccessibility in a simulated human gastrointestinal tract model. They examined Vitamin D’s bioaccessibility, or the amount it was released in the gastrointestinal tract, becoming available for absorption, and found it “significantly decreased from 80% to 74%” with the addition of E171. In the experiment, E171 decreased lipid digestion dose-dependently. Researchers wrote: “The findings of this study enhance our understanding toward the potential impact of E171 on the nutritional attributes of foods for human digestion health.” The study was published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry,
