  2. N-Vinylpyrrolidone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-Vinylpyrrolidone

    N-Vinylpyrrolidone (NVP) is an organic compound consisting of a 5-membered lactam ring linked to a (2 carbon) vinyl group. It is a colorless liquid although commercial samples can appear yellowish. It is produced industrially by vinylation of 2-pyrrolidone, i.e. the base-catalyzed reaction with acetylene. [2]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvinylpyrrolidone

    Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), also commonly called polyvidone or povidone, is a water-soluble polymer compound made from the monomer N-vinylpyrrolidone. [1] PVP is available in a range of molecular weights and related viscosities, and can be selected according to the desired application properties.

    It is polydimethylsiloxane elastomer particles suspended in a biocompatible carrier hydrogel of poly-N-vinyl-pyrrolidone (povidone). Significantly more publications exist which investigate this material compared to the other materials, [ 4 ] and it has been the most widely used bulking material used for FI. [ 10 ]

  5. Polyacrylic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyacrylic_acid

    Polyacrylic acid is a weak anionic polyelectrolyte, whose degree of ionisation is dependent on solution pH. In its non-ionised form at low pHs, PAA may associate with various non-ionic polymers (such as polyethylene oxide, poly-N-vinyl pyrrolidone, polyacrylamide, and some cellulose ethers) and form hydrogen-bonded interpolymer complexes.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape-memory_polymer

    Shape-memory polymers (SMPs) are polymeric smart materials that have the ability to return from a deformed state (temporary shape) to their original (permanent) shape when induced by an external stimulus (trigger), such as temperature change.

  8. 4-Vinylpyridine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-Vinylpyridine

    4-Vinylpyridine (4-VP) is an organic compound with the formula CH 2 CHC 5 H 4 N. It is a derivative of pyridine with a vinyl group in the 4-position. It is a colorless liquid, although impure samples are often brown. It is a monomeric precursor to specialty polymers. 4-Vinylpyridine is prepared by the condensation of 4-methylpyridine and ...

    Lastly, a droplet of mixture of monomers (e.g., PEGDA and N-vinyl pyrrolidone) and phenolphthalein is added to the test strip, and the droplet is illuminated with green visible light, by which the eosin molecules become excited and produce radicals. (Figure 1c) As a result, propagation is caused and polymers are formed. [citation needed]
