    commercial PVA membrane

    I am looking for commercial Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) membranes only for my research. Can you help me to find any company where I can get/buy it. I've talked with some companies (e.g. VWR, Sulzer, Koch etc) but they are interested in selling whole separation unit and not the membranes only.
