Title:
POLYVINYL ALCOHOL AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/170974
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
According to the present invention a polyvinyl alcohol is produced by performing: a polymerization step wherein a polymer solution containing a polyvinyl ester is obtained by polymerizing a vinyl ester monomer by means of controlled radical polymerization in the presence of a radical initiator and an organic cobalt complex; an extraction step wherein a cobalt complex is extracted from the polymer solution by bringing the polymer solution into contact with an aqueous solution containing a water-soluble ligand; and a saponification step wherein a polyvinyl alcohol is obtained by saponifying the polyvinyl ester after the extraction step. Consequently, the present invention provides a method for producing a polyvinyl alcohol which has narrow molecular weight distribution, high number average molecular weight and good hue, while exhibiting good solubility in water.
