Polyvinyl Alcohol Functionalized Silica
PVA-Sil is prepared from a 5 micron 12nm silica support which is bonded with a monomolecular polymer coating of vinyl alcohol. The polymerised PVA completely covers both external and internal surfaces of the silica support, protecting it against aggressive, high pH buffers and solvents.
