Povidone (PVP K30 , K90)

Product Description

Povidone (PVP K30, K90) is a water-soluble polymer derived from polyvinylpyrrolidone, widely used as a binder, film former, and stabilizer in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food applications. It appears as a white to off-white, hygroscopic powder and offers excellent solubility in water and organic solvents. PVP provides strong binding properties, enhances tablet hardness, improves film coating, and ensures stability and uniformity in formulations.
