A new recent use (patented) for PVOH is in feminine hygiene and adult incontinence products. Anyway, looks like you can get some here: linky Sure hope you get things back 'under control.'

The Poojer Posted January 16, 2006 Author Share Posted January 16, 2006 actually that is an ingredient needed to make homemade "Floam" some play foam that is advertised heavily on Nickelodeon, there is a homemade recipe for it and it calls for white glue, put Provinyl Alcohol apparently works better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kid! I saw some articles about it being used in slime, and thought that was what you were up to. I happen to have $19.99 worth of floam in my possession. Been sitting in the house for 3-4 months now. Another great investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
