Line 60: PVA-based polymers are used widely in additive manufacturing. For example, 3D printed oral dosage forms demonstrate great potential in the pharmaceutical industry. It is possible to create drug-loaded tablets with modified drug-release characteristics where PVA is used as a binder substance.<ref>{{cite journal \|vauthors = Xu X, Zhao J, Wang M, Wang L, Yang J \|display-authors=3\|title = 3D Printed Polyvinyl Alcohol Tablets with Multiple Release Profiles \|journal = Scientific Reports \|volume = 9 \|issue = 1 \|pages = 12487 \|date = August 2019 \|pmid = 31462744 \|pmc = 6713737 \|doi = 10.1038/s41598-019-48921-8 }}</ref> Medically, PVA-based [[Microparticle\|microparticles]] have received [[Food and Drug Administration\|FDA]] [[510k]] approval to be used as [[Embolization\|embolisation]] particles to be used for peripheral hypervascular tumors. <ref>{{Cite web \|title=Contour™ - Brief Summary \|url=https://www.bostonscientific.com/en-US/products/embolization/contour-pva-embolization-particles/contour-prescriptive-information.html \|access-date=2023-08-11 \|website=www.bostonscientific.com \|language=en-us}}</ref> It may also used as the embolic agent in a Uterine Fibroid Embolectomy (UFE).<ref>{{cite web \|title = Uterine Fibroid Embolization and Imaging \|url = https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/421734-overview#a4 \|vauthors = Siskin GP \|veditors = Cho KJ \|work=Medscape\|publisher = WebMD LLC \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150304224753/https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/421734-overview#a15 \|archive-date=2015-03-04}}</ref> In biomedical engineering research, PVA has also been studied for [[cartilage]], [[Orthopedic surgery\|orthopaedic]] applications,<ref>{{Cite journal \|last=Baker \|first=Maribel I. \|last2=Walsh \|first2=Steven P. \|last3=Schwartz \|first3=Zvi \|last4=Boyan \|first4=Barbara D. \|date=July 2012~~-07~~ \|title=A review of polyvinyl alcohol and its uses in cartilage and orthopedic applications \|url=https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jbm.b.32694 \|journal=Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials \|language=en \|volume=100B \|issue=5 \|pages=1451–1457 \|doi=10.1002/jbm.b.32694}}</ref> and potential materials for [[vascular graft]].<ref>{{Cite journal \|last=Chaouat \|first=Marc \|last2=Le Visage \|first2=Catherine \|last3=Baille \|first3=Wilms E. \|last4=Escoubet \|first4=Brigitte \|last5=Chaubet \|first5=Frédéric \|last6=Mateescu \|first6=Mircea Alexandru \|last7=Letourneur \|first7=Didier \|date=2008-10-09 \|title=A Novel Cross-linked Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) for Vascular Grafts \|url=https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/adfm.200701261 \|journal=Advanced Functional Materials \|language=en \|volume=18 \|issue=19 \|pages=2855–2861 \|doi=10.1002/adfm.200701261}}</ref> PVA is commonly used in household sponges that absorb more water than [[Polyurethane]] sponges.
