PVP K-30 polymer
PVP K-30 polymer
Description
PVP (Polyvinylpyrrolidone) K-30 polymer is a hygroscopic, amorphous polymer. They are linear nonionic polymers
that are soluble in water and organic solvents and are pH stable. PVP K-30 forms hard glossy transparent films and
have adhesive, cohesive and dispersive properties.
Key Attributes
Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) can be plasticized with water and most common organic plasticizers. It is
considered to be physiologically inert. Applications take advantage of one or more properties inherent in the
polymer, typically due to the pyrrolidone ring.
High polarity and the resultant propensity to form complexes with hydrogen donors, such as phenols and
carboxylic acids, as well as anionic dyes and inorganic salts.
Dispersancy, where components in a mixture are uniformly distributed through the use of
polyvinylpyrrolidone.
Hydrophilicity, where the water solubility of PVP is its dominant feature and frequently a factor along with
other properties valuable to numerous applications.
Adhesion, taking advantage of the molecular weight PVP formulating in aqueous media, then evaporating
sufficient water to generate a solid product for the desired application.
Cohesivity, where cohesive strength is achieved through a variety of dry blending and granulation techniques.
