PVA glue
Definition
A commercial name widely generalized in Romanian common speech for a liquid, white, and viscous adhesive based on an aqueous dispersion of polyvinyl acetate (PVA). It is extensively used in carpentry, construction finishes, bookbinding, paper manufacturing, and school or handicraft activities due to its excellent bonding capability on porous materials and the fact that it becomes transparent upon drying.
