GOHSENOL EG SERIES
GOHSENOL EG is a series of high-quality polyvinyl alcohols with the Extra High purity property. Make use of this character, GOHSENOL EG series are widely used for the application of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, electronics materials and ceramics.

GOHSENOL EG-Grade P series is a newly developed grade. This grade is produced under the severe quality control with the ISO certification, and succeeded to apply for USP and EP regulation*.
*Not adapted for GMP regulation.

Dissolution pattern with GOHSENOL EG



Dissolving GOHSENOL EG
GOHSENOL EG is charged into room temperature water in small amounts while stirring to disperse. The water is heated, and with constant stirring, kept at 80 to 90 degree C for 30 to 60 minutes.


Storing GOHSENOL EG
Avoid storage in tanks or pipes that readily rust.
