Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM)
ANHUI LIWEI CHEMICAL CO.,LIMITED
[Introduction]
ANHUI LIWEI's vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) is a colorless liquid. It is a key component in the production of various emulsion polymers, including polyvinyl acetate (PVA), and is used as an intermediate in the manufacture of paints, adhesives, printing inks, coatings, and textiles. It is also used in the production of ethylene vinyl acetate (E-VAM), an elastomeric copolymer with a wide range of important applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why purchase Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM)?
VAM is a key raw material in the production of polyvinyl acetate (PVAc), vinyl acetate ethylene (VAE) emulsions, and polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) (a precursor to PVB film). VAM is also used in the production of ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) resin and ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA). Its primary end-uses include paints and coatings, adhesives, building construction, paper coatings, textile finishing, films, and other industrial and consumer applications.
