In this work, the possibility of obtaining composites on the basis of polyvinyl alcohol and bentonite clay Manrak deposit has been investigated. The interaction of polyvinyl alcohol with bentonite clay was studied by employing methods such as equilibrium swelling, sedimentation, electrophoresis, viscometer, and scanning electron microscopy. It was established that the interaction of polyvinyl alcohol and bentonite clay are due to the hydrogen bonding between them. The composite gels with the improved structural-mechanical and prolonged effect have been formed on a base both of polyvinyl alcohol and clay.
