* In another 10mL beaker, weigh out ~ 1.0 gram PVOH (MW 130,000)
'''(Actual Mass = 0.9965g)'''
* Then, using a graduated cylinder add ~ 5 mL H<sub>2</sub>O to the beaker

* After adding and combining PVOH (MW 130,000) in small beakers with H<sub>2</sub>O, add stir bars and prepare to stir solution.

* On hot plate, stir and heat both beaker solutions at 70-80°C for ~ 12 min or until PVOH dissolves.
* Once PVOH solids thoroughly dissolve in solution, pour each solution in a Teflon dish to sit, cool, and dry in a fume hood for ~ 1 day.
