Application:
Cosmetics: PVP/VAc series products play a good role as film-former and hair-fixing agent. Its  hydrophobe decreases with the increase in the proportion of vinyl acetate in the molecular. This property is extremely useful for PVP/VAc as hair sprays and hairset lotion. If being used with PVPK30, the effect would be enhanced.
Other Utility:

Remoistenable adhesive and other adhesives for paper.
Viscosity-enhancing agent and protecting colloid for printing ink
Binder in coatings(paints) and protecting colloid for printing ink
Binder in coatings(paints) and stabilizer for the dispersion of dyeing.
Film coatings agent in pharmaceutical Industry
