Adhesive and Binder
GOHSENOL™ has been widely used as an adhesive and/or binder having the following properties:
- Excellent adhesion
- The property of improving initial adhesion and drying speeds combined with a filler such as clay
- Excellent resistance to oil and plasticizers
- Excellent film strength
Additionally, G-type GOHSENOL™ is excellent in remoistening adherence.

Films and Molded Products
From GOHSENX™ and GOHSENOL™ two kinds of film, water-soluble and hardly water-soluble, can be obtained. They are widely used for packaging not only textile products but also chemicals, foodstuffs, soaps, agricultural chemicals, and dyes, or as a release film for the molding of unsaturated polyesters.
From GOHSENX™ and GOHSENOL™ are also used for molding various products, which require such characteristics intrinsic to PVA as high tensile strength, organic solvent resistance, and gas impermeability.
Cosmetics
GOHSENOL™ EG is used as a chief raw material for cosmetic packs like face masks. GOHSENOL™ EG is often added to into cosmetic soaps and cosmetic creams as a thickening agent.
Pharmaceuticals
GOHSENOL™ EG has been used as an excipient for capsules and ointments.
Soil Conditioning and Erosion Prevention
GOHSENX™ and GOHSENOL™ can be used for the aggregation of field and horticultural soils, erosion prevention of sloping grounds, and growth promotion of lawn grass, runoff prevention, and soil stabilization.
Raw Material for Various Derivatives
GOHSENX™ and GOHSENOL™ are used as a raw material of acetal resins such as butyral resin, and photosensitive resins such as polyvinyl cinnamate or in graft polymerization. Please refer to the GOHSENX™ and GOHSENOL™ application catalogue compiled for each representative application for more specific details.
