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.
Polyvinylpolypyrrolidone (polyvinyl polypyrrolidone, PVPP, crospovidone, crospolividone, or E1202) is a highly cross-linked modification of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP).. The cross-linked form of PVP is used as a disintegrant (see also excipients) in pharmaceutical tablets. [1]
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.
Gelclair is a medicinal oral gel containing polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and hyaluronic acid [1] that coats the surface of the mouth forming a thin protective film over painful oral lesions, such as those caused by radiotherapy or chemotherapy treatment for cancer.
Poly(4-vinylphenol), also called polyvinylphenol or PVP, is a plastic structurally similar to polystyrene. It is produced from the monomer 4-vinylphenol, which is also referred to as 4-hydroxystyrene. PVP is used in electronics as a dielectric layer in organic transistors in organic TFT LCD displays.
Povidone-iodine is a chemical complex of the polymer povidone (polyvinylpyrrolidone, PVP) and triiodide (I − 3). [24] It is synthesized by mixing the PVP polymer with iodine (I 2), allowing the two to react. [25] It is soluble in cold and mild-warm water, ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, and glycerol.
Polyvinyl butyral (or PVB) is a resin mostly used for applications that require strong binding, optical clarity, adhesion to many surfaces, toughness and flexibility. It is prepared from polyvinyl alcohol by reaction with butyraldehyde.
PTQ implant is a type of bio-compatible perianal injectable bulking agent used in urinary and fecal incontinence.The material is a type of silicone, and is injected into the desired area to bulk out the tissues and reduce incontinence symptoms.
