A method is provided for reducing the solvent content and increasing the sticking temperature of polyvinyl alcohol, which is prepared from the alcoholysis of polyvinyl acetate, charged to a dryer. The polyvinyl alcohol from the alcoholysis reaction, without prior vacuum drying at an elevated temperature, is slurried in a liquid medium comprising methanol, methyl acetate, water and, optionally, a nonsolvent for polyvinyl alcohol. The slurry is heated to at least 60 DEG C. for at least 5 minutes. The polyvinyl alcohol burnt particle count is reduced in the subsequent drying step and a product is afforded which has a reduced ash content and increased cold water solubility and low temperature solubility.
