The Impact of Crosslinking Polyvinyl Alcohol with Glutaraldehyde on Toughness: A Statistical Analysis Using the Turnkey HSD MethodBy S. Joyson Abraham, S. Richard, D S Manoj Abraham, D S Jenaris, T. Livingston, P Brightson
Abstract: The widespread use of non-biodegradable polymers exacerbates problems with global warming and other environmental difficulties. These problems necessitate the development of biodegradable polymers as a solution. In this research, we analyze the utilization of crosslinked polymer by its processing of polyvinyl alcohol (P V A) crosslinked with glutaraldehyde (G L U T). After curing for 24 hours in 2 moles of sulfuric acid (H2SO4), the plasticized alcohol has been cross-linked …
