Vinyl acetate monomer (VA-M) is a colorless liquid, immiscible or slightly soluble in water. VA-M is a flammable liquid. VA-M has a sweet, fruity smell (in small quantities), with sharp, irritating odor at higher levels. VA-M is an essential chemical building block used in a wide variety of industrial and consumer products. VA-M is a key ingredient in emulsion polymers, resins, and intermediates used in paints, adhesives, coatings, textiles, wire and cable polyethylene compounds, laminated safety glass, packaging, automotive plastic fuel tanks, and acrylic fibers. Vinyl acetate is used to produce polyvinyl acetate emulsions and resins. Very small residual levels of vinyl acetate have been found present in products manufactured using VA-M, such as molded plastic items, adhesives, paints, food packaging containers, and hairspray. Vinyl acetate is primarily used to produce polyvinyl acetate emulsions and polyvinyl alcohol. The principal use of these emulsions has been in adhesives, paints, textiles, and paper products. In polymerized form for plastic masses, films and lacquers; in plastic film for food packaging. As modifier for food starch.
