Application

PVP (average mol wt 10,000) can be used as a stabilizing agent in the synthesis of metal nanoparticles to prevent them from agglomeration.[1] PVP is also used in the fabrication of mesoporous silica-polymer hybrid (PVP-aminopropyl-SBA-15 Schiff Base hybrid) for the effective removal of divalent heavy metal cations from wastewater. Grafting of PVP functionalization offers a strong affinity for heavy metal ions because it provides two adsorption sites, one through metal-C-O group interaction and the other through metal-π interaction (the chelation of with Schiff base).

General description

Polyvinylpyrrolidone (polyvidone, povidone, or PVP) is a synthetic water-soluble polymer consisting of linear 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidinone groups. It is hygroscopic and readily absorbs up to 40% of water by its weight. It has excellent wetting properties in solution and easily forms films, which makes it suitable for use as a coating additive.[2]PVP can be synthesized from its monomer N-vinylpyrrolidone via free-radical polymerization in the presence of AIBN as an initiator. In chemical industries, PVP is widely used as a surface stabilizer, growth modifier, nanoparticle dispersant, and reducing agent.[3][4]

PVP can serve as a surface stabilizer, nanoparticle dispersant, growth modifier, and reducing agent, depending on the synthetic conditions.[3]

Other Notes

Polyvinylpyrrolidone is a component of Denhardt′s Solution and is included at a concentration of 1% (w/v) in the standard 50X stock solution.

Questions

1–6 of 6 Questions  

  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer

    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/418/501/product-dating-information-06-25-mk.pdf

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer

    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  6. What is the K value in the specification of Product PVP10, Polyvinylpyrrolidone, and how is it determined?

    1 answer

    1. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) is characterized by its K value, a dimensionless value which is a function of the average molecular weight, the degree of polymerization, and the intrinsic viscosity.  It is calculated from dilute solution viscosity measurements.  log (Ns/No)/C = (75 Ko x Ko)/(1 + 1.5 Ko C) + Ko where Ns = viscosity of the solution, No = viscosity of the solvent and C = concentration in grams per 100 ml of solution. K = 1000 x Ko. The larger the K value for a material, the higher the viscosity.
