Vinylpyrrolidone

C. Manufactured from butyrolactone and ammonia. Easily hydrolysed to 4-amino-butanoic acid, its most important use is for the formation of N-vinylpyrrolidone by reaction with elhyne. 

Commercial grades of PVP, K-15, K-30, K-90, and K-120 and the quaternized copolymer of vinylpyrrolidone and dimthylaminoethylmethacrylate (poly-VP/ DMAEMA) made by International Specialty Products (ISP) were used in this study. PEO standard calibration kits were purchased from Polymer Laboratories Ltd. (PL), American Polymer Standards Corporation (APSC), Polymer Standards Service (PSS), and Tosoh Corporation (TSK). In addition, two narrow NIST standards, 1923 and 1924, were used to evaluate commercial PEO standards. Deionized, filtered water, and high-performance liquid chromatography grade methanol purchased from Aldrich or Fischer Scientific were used in this study. Lithium nitrate (LiN03) from Aldrich was the salt added to the mobile phases to control for polyelectrolyte effects. 

The quaternized copolymer of vinylpyrrolidone and dimethylaminoethylmetha-crylate (poly-VP/DMAEMA) has been analyzed successfully with Ultrahydrogel columns and a mobile phase of a 0.1 M Tris pH 7 buffer with 0.3 or 0.5 M lithium nitrate (14). In this study, poor recovery of a poly-VP/DMAEMA sample was noticed when 0.2 M lithium nitrate was used for KB-80M, SB806-MHQ, and TSK GM-PWxl columns. Good recovery was achieved with 0.4 M lithium nitrate, and M of the poly-VP/DMAEMA were found to be 290,000, 300,000, and 320,000 for the respective columns. This demonstrates the equivalence of these columns for SEC of cationic polymers. 

In contrast to /3-PCPY, ICPY did not initiate copolymerization of MMA with styrene [39] and AN with styrene [40]. However, it accelerated radical polymerization by increasing the rate of initiation in the former case and decreasing the rate of termination in the latter case. The studies on photocopolymerization of MMA with styrene in the presence of ICPY has also been reported [41], /8-PCPY also initiated radical copolymerization of 4-vinylpyridine with methyl methacrylate [42]. However, the ylide retarded the polymerization of N-vinylpyrrolidone, initiated by AIBN at 60°C in benzene [44]. (See also Table 2.)... 

Polyfvinyl pyrrolidone), prepared from iV-vinylpyrrolidone, is used both in cosmetics and as a synthetic blood substitute. Draw a representative segment of the polymer. 

Most other hydrophilic monomers inclined to radical polymerization (methacrylamide, methacrylic acid, N-vinylpyrrolidone, aminoalkyl and hydroxyalkyl methacrylates) do not form hydrogels with high swellability in water. 

The majority of hydrophilic and water-soluble polymers are manufactured on the commercial level. Their list includes PAAm, copolymers of AAm, PAAc, PEO, PVA, poly(jY-vinylpyrrolidone), some polyamines etc. So, it seems practically highly attractive to produce hydrogels based on these polymers using various crosslinking techniques. 

There are several other interesting polymers forming SAH with swellings up to 1500 ml g 1 under irradiation in aqueous solutions, such as sodium salts of PAAc [83], copolymers of AAm with AAc [22], poly-N-vinylpyrrolidone [84], PVA... 

It has been outlined by several authors that the single macromolecule may be irreversibly bound because of the large number of weakly interacting segments. The first papers on the construction of polymer-coated silica adsorbents involved the physical adsorption of water-soluble polymers. Polyethylene oxides [28, 29] and poly-/V-vinylpyrrolidone [30] are examples of the stationary phases of this type. 

The drawback of the described adsorbents is the leakage of the bonded phase that may occur after the change of eluent or temperature of operation when the equilibrium of the polymer adsorption is disturbed. In order to prepare a more stable support Dulout et al. [31] introduced the treatment of porous silica with PEO, poly-lV-vinylpyrrolidone or polyvinylalcohol solution followed by a second treatment with an aqueous solution of a protein whose molecular weight was lower than that of the proteins to be separated. Possibly, displacement of the weakly adsorbed coils by the stronger interacting proteins produce an additional shrouding of the polymer-coated supports. After the weakly adsorbed portion was replaced, the stability of the mixed adsorption layer was higher. 

In which the ratio m/n is close to 3. The silane was produced by free radical copolymerization of vinyltriethoxysilane with N-vinylpyrrolidone. Its number-average molecular weight evaluated by vapour-phase osmometry was 3500. Porous silica microballs with a mean pore diameter of 225 A, a specific surface area (Ssp) of 130 m2/g and a pore volume of 0.8 cm3/g were modified by the silane dissolved in dry toluene. After washings and drying, 0.55% by weight of nitrogen and 4.65% of carbon remained on the microballs. Chromatographic tests carried out with a series of proteins have proved the size-exclusion mechanism of their separation. 

Chemically attached copolymers of iV-vinylpyrrolidone (N-VP) and N-(2-hydroxyethyl)acrylamide (N-HEAA) steeply decrease the inherent glass adsorp-tivity which is observed for proteins in aqueous buffer solutions. Thus, it became possible to apply the prepared materials to the size exclusion chromatography of viruses and ribosomes. 

Indeed, the polymeric interface seems to be highly diffuse and hydrophilic because copolymers of N-vinylpyrrolidone and N- (2-hydroxyethyl) acrylamide are readily soluble in water [53]. Besides, aminopropyl-glass adsorbs the acryloyl chloride copolymer so that only 10% of its active functions become amidated. The rest is located on the loops and tails of the attached macromolecules [51]. Thus the steric repulsion of the bonded phase is a probable reason for the high inertness of the packing towards viruses. 

The nature of the interaction between the monomer and the template is more obvious in cases where specific ionic or hydrogen bonding is possible. For example, /f-vinyl imidazole has been polymerized along a PM A A template301 202 and acrylic acid has been polymerized on a Af-vinylpyrrolidone template.3 The daughter PAA had a similar degree of polymerization to the template and had a greater fraction of isotaclic triads than PAA formed in the absence of the template. 

Typical examples of organic polymers satisfying the above requirements are as follows poly (2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (2), poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (3), or poly(N,N-... 

Solubilization of vinylpyrrolidone, acrylic acid, and A,A -methylene-bis-acrylamide in AOT-reversed micelles allowed the synthesis in situ of a cross-linked polymer with narrow size distribution confined in the micellar domain. These particles displayed high entrapment efficiency of small hydrophilic drugs and have been considered interesting drug delivery systems [239],... 

Lignite can be grafted with synthetic comonomers to obtain lignite fluid loss additives [873]. Comonomers can be AMPS, N,N-dimethylacrylamide, acrylamide, vinylpyrrolidone, vinylacetate, acrylonitrile, dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, styrene sulfonate, vinyl sulfonate, dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate methyl chloride quaternary, and acrylic acid and its salts. 

A terpolymer fonned from ionic monomers AMPS, sodium vinyl sulfonate or vinylbenzene sulfonate itaconic acid, and a nonionic monomer, for example, acrylamide, N,N-dimethylacrylamide, N-vinylpyrrolidone, N-vinyl acetamide, and dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, is used as a fluid loss agent in oil well cements [1562], The terpolymer should have a molecular weight between 200,000and 1,000,000 Daltons. The terpolymer comprises AMPS, acrylamide, and itaconic acid. Such copolymers also serve in drilling fluids [1892]. 

A fluid loss additive useful in cementing oil and gas wells is a blend [423,424,1015] of a copolymer of acrylamide/vinyl imidazole. The second component in the blend is a copolymer of vinylpyrrolidone and the sodium salt of vinyl sulfonate. Details are given in Table 2-2. The copolymers are mixed together in the range of 20 80 to 80 20. Sodium or potassium salts or a sulfonated naphthalene formaldehyde condensate can be used as a dispersant. 

An N-vinylpyrrolidone/acrylamide random copolymer (0.05% to 5.0% by weight) is used for cementing compositions [371, 1076]. Furthermore, a sulfonate-containing cement dispersant is necessary. The additive can be used in wells with a bottom-hole temperature of 80° to 300° F. The fluid loss additive mixture is especially effective at low temperatures, for example, below 100° F and in sodium silicate-extended slurries. 

For aqueous cement slurries a copolymer of N-vinylpyrrolidone and a salt of styrenesulfonic acid has been proposed [1585]. A naphthalene sulfonic acid salt condensed with formaldehyde serves as a dispersant. 

N-vinylpyrrolidone, and the sodium salt of vinyl sulfonate dispersants are sodium or potassium salts or a sulfonated naphthalene formaldehyde condensate ...
