Polyvinylpyrrolidone, also known as povidone or PVP, is used in the pharmaceutical industry as a synthetic polymer vehicle for dispersing and suspending drugs.N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (VP) is commonly used as a reactive diluent for radiation curing in UV-coating, UV-inks, and UV- adhesives.
In brief, the PVP solution was prepared by dissolving 0.5 g of PVP in 10 mL of deionized water at room temperature for 2 h under agitation. The PVP/CNC ratio was controlled by stoichiometric addition of a CNC suspension to a fixed quantity of the PVP solution followed by vigorous stirring for 1 h.
Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), commonly called polyvidone or povidone, is a water-soluble polymer made from the monomer N-vinylpyrrolidone [87,88]. Dry PVP is a light flaky hygroscopic powder and readily absorbs up to 40% of water by its weight. ... The PVP was used as a blood plasma expander for trauma victims.
