  • the B-type viscometer used was a TVB-10 viscometer (manufactured by Toki Sangyo Co., Ltd.), and the measurements were performed with the following rotation speeds and rotors: Examples 1 to 14, 17, Comparative Examples 1, 4 to 7: Rotational speed 30 rpm, SPINDLE No. M1 Example 16, Comparative Example 2: Rotational speed 30 rpm, SPINDLE No. M2 Example 15, Comparative Example 3: Rotational speed 60 rpm, SPINDLE No. M1
  • the inside of the column of the HPLC system was filled with a mixed solvent of mobile phase A/mobile phase B in a volume ratio of 9/1.
  • the sample was injected, and the ratio of mobile phase B in the mobile phase was increased at a constant rate (4.5 vol%/min) over 20 minutes from immediately after the sample injection. Only mobile phase B was allowed to flow for 10 minutes from 20 minutes after the injection.
  • the column temperature was 45°C, and the liquid delivery flow rate was 0.4 mL/min.
  • the polyvinyl acetal resin obtained in Example 5 was subjected to HPLC measurement, and the measurement data obtained (vertical axis: peak intensity, horizontal axis: retention time [RT]) are shown in FIG.
  • the peak half-width W0.5h is measured by reversed-phase partition gradient high-performance liquid chromatography under the above conditions, and represents the peak width at the 50% height position.
  • the actual data obtained was analyzed using Shimadzu Corporation's Labsolutions LC (ver. 5.7.1 SP1) under the following conditions. Width: 100 seconds Slope: 200 ⁇ m Drift: 0 ⁇ V/min T. DBL: 1000 min Minimum area/height: 10,000 counts The 50% height width of the peak calculated when analyzed under these conditions was calculated as W 0.5h .
  • Viscosity change rate is 400% or less
  • the breaking stress (MPa) of the obtained ceramic green sheets was measured at a tensile speed of 20 mm/min in an environment of 23° C. using a tensile tester (AUTOGRAPH AGS-J, manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation) in accordance with JIS K 7113. Thirty test pieces were prepared, and the measurement was performed 30 times to determine the average value of the breaking stress, which was evaluated according to the following criteria.
  • Breaking stress is more than 32 MPa
  • Standard deviation of stress at break is 0.40 or less
  • a polyvinyl acetal resin which, particularly when used as a binder for ceramic green sheets, can provide ceramic green sheets having uniform tensile strength and high breaking stress.
