A process for the preparation of a polyvinyl butyral having improved properties comprises subjecting a polyvinyl alcohol in an aqueous medium in the presence of butyraldehyde and an acid catalyst and sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate (DOS), effective as an emulsifier, neutralizing the reaction mixture to a pH of 5, and thereafter recovering the polyvinyl butyral by separating it from the reaction liquors and thoroughly washing it with water. |
