Crospovidone by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is a high grade reagent. Also known as Polyvinylpyrrolidone, this is a polymer made from the monomer, N-vinylpyrrolidone. The reagent is available as a white powder which is soluble in water. It has a melting point of 150 to 180 C. While it is stable under general conditions, this reagent is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. CAS No.: 9003-39-8 Quantity Provided: 100 gm per bottleCrospovidone has a variety of applications in chemical and biological sectors. This reagent finds applications in the organic synthesis of various derivatives. Crospovidone finds use as a binder in many pharmaceutical tablets. It is also added to iodine to give a complex called povidone-iodine that possesses disinfectant properties. Crospovidone is used as an adhesive in glue stick and hot-melt adhesives, as a binder and complexation agent in agricultural applications, as a liquid-phase dispersion enhancing agent, as an emulsifier and disintegrant for solution polymerization. This reagent is suitable for industrial synthesis of products and research applications.
