The cross-linked form of PVP is used as a disintegrant (see also excipients) in pharmaceutical tablets. [1] PVPP is a highly cross-linked version of PVP, making it insoluble in water, though it still absorbs water and swells very rapidly generating a swelling force. This property makes it useful as a disintegrant in tablets.

A number of cross-bedding patterns are found in sediments, and reflect the currents that deposited them. Subcategories This category has only the following subcategory.
These structures are within sedimentary bedding and can help with the interpretation of depositional environment and paleocurrent directions. They are formed when the sediment is deposited. Cross-bedding Cross-bedding is the layering of beds deposited by wind or water inclined at an angle as much as 35° from the horizontal. [1]
Wavy bedding occurs when mud is deposited over the whole area of a bed of rippled and/or cross stratified sand. It usually loosely follows the alternating concave-convex nature of the ripples creating a wavy appearance. In wavy bedding the ripples are laterally discontinuous. Wavy bedding marks the boundary between flaser and lenticular bedding ...
Bedding may be irregular but is almost always present, and cross-bedding is common. [5] There are various cases where inland dunes have developed next to eskers after deglaciation. [7] These dunes are often found in the leeward side of eskers, if the esker is not oriented parallel to prevailing winds. [7]
