In over 70 years since that significant milestone the range has been continuously developed to broaden the application base. Originally used as a plasma substitute, today PVP is used in a wide variety of applications in pharmacy, cosmetics and industrial production. BASF’s PVP homo- and copolymers are known under the brand name Sokalan® for technical applications. Professor Walter Reppe 3 Sokalan ® – Solutions for Technical Applications Sokalan ® K Types – Vinylpyrrolidone Homopolymers Overview Product range PVP is a white, hygroscopic powder with a weak characteristic odour. In contrast to most polymers, it is readily soluble in water and in a large number of organic solvents, such as alcohols, amines, acids, chlorinated hydrocarbons, amides and lactams. On the other hand, the polymer is insoluble in the common esters, ethers, hydrocarbons and ketones. BASF offers a wide range of vinylpyrrolidone homopolymers with different molecular weights under the name Sokalan® K. PVP is markedly hygroscopic. This property combined with outstanding film formation, initial tack and adhesion to different materials, high capacity for complex formation, good stabilizing and solubilizing capacity, insensitivity to pH changes, ready radiation-induced crosslinkability as well as good biological compatibility have made PVP one of the most frequently used specialty polymers. PVP is synthesized by free-radical polymerization of N-vinylpyrrolidone in water or alcohols. By selecting suitable polymerization conditions, a wide range of molecular weights can be achieved, extending from low values of a few thousand daltons to approximately 2.2 million daltons. Sokalan® K types – versatile polymers for technical applications Soluble in many mediums Hygroscopic Film formation Adhesion Initial tack Complex formation Dispersing Stabilization Solubilization Crosslinkability Stable over a wide pH range Biological compatibility Toxicologically safe Binding 4 The products are available as aqueous solutions or powder. Typical parameters of the Sokalan® K types are listed in the following two tables. High molecular weight PVP powders – Sokalan® K 80, K 85, and K 90 – are packed under an inert gas atmosphere to maintain the molecular weight. The data on page 5 (solution types and powder types) are current as at the date of publication and are not all included in the product specification. The specified test characteristics are stated in the product specification, which may be requested from your local BASF representative. All numerical data are approximated.

While in the case of the low molecular weight K 17 and K 30 grades, a 5 – 10% increase in concentration has only a slight effect on the viscosity, changes by a factor of 5 or more can be found for the high molecular weight products.

The number-average molecular weight (Mn) rises in parallel with the Mw from around 2,000 daltons to around 400,000 daltons. The weight average and the number average were determined by GPC analysis; calibration was done with narrowly distributed PVP samples which had previously been characterized by light scattering. 6 Glass transition temperature With the exception of Sokalan® K 17, the glass transition temperatures of the Sokalan® K homopolymers lie within a similar, relatively high temperature range of 175 – 180°C. Sokalan® K 17 has a Tg of approximately 110°C. Color An aqueous solution of 10% powder results in a color range from almost colorless to a faint yellow tint. The liquid product types share a similar color range which does not alter with changes in concentration and molecular weight. Compatibility and film forming properties The outstanding compatibility of PVP with a huge number of compounds like organic and inorganic salts, dyes, active compounds, plasticizers, bacteria, blood opens up a wide field of opportunity and applications for Sokalan® K types in different industries. PVP films are clear, transparent, hard and brittle. These properties can be selectively modified, for example, tack and brittleness, by using plasticizers like: water, glycerin, glycol, polyglycols, fatty acid derivatives, phthalates, Hexamoll®, sorbitol, and cellulose derivatives. Crosslinkability High molecular weight Sokalan® K types (for example Sokalan® K 90) can be crosslinked at elevated temperature (70 – 90°C) by adding small quantities of a peroxide (for example tert.-butyl peroxipivalate, H2O2/CuCl2) or persulfate in aqueous solution and under nitrogen. By contrast, aqueous Sokalan® K 30 solutions can best be crosslinked by raising the pH to ≥ 11 at elevated temperature (approximately 90°C) under nitrogen. PVP films can be crosslinked even at room temperature by radiation curing (electron beam, gamma or X-rays) using 0.5 – 10 megarads. Crosslinking is also known with UV light in the presence of a UV initiator (for example 4,4‘-diazidostilbene-2,2‘- di-sodium sulfonate) at 350 – 380 nm and a light intensity of 0.2 – 0.5 mW/cm2. When crosslinked, PVP becomes insoluble in all solvents. In contrast to soluble PVP, crosslinked PVP is capable of swelling only in polar solvents (for example water or ethanol). The extent of swelling depends on the crosslinking density. On account of its outstanding adhesion and physiological compatibility, weakly crosslinked PVP with a high water content (hydrogel) is used as a skin-adhesive gel. Sokalan ® – Vinylpyrollidone Copolymers Overview The use of a comonomer extends the Sokalan® PVP product range with specifically modified properties. By incorporating selected comonomers into the PVP polymer chain, the properties of the homopolymers can be modified. This opens up a variety of possibilities for new applications. Comonomers include vinylacetate (VA) and N-vinylcaprolactam (VCAP). Sokalan® VA – vinylpyrrolidone/vinylacetate copolymer Sokalan® VA 64 is nonionic. Its comonomer ratio is optimized to make it soluble in both water and organic solvents such as ethanol, isopropanol, n-propanol, glycerin, methylene chloride, esters and ketones. Sokalan® VA 64 powder is not soluble in ether or aliphatic hydrocarbons without auxiliary solvents. When compared with PVP homopolymers, the glass transition temperature of Sokalan® VA 64 of 105°C is significantly lower, giving it a markedly improved melting behaviour. Sokalan® VA 64 can be extruded at approx. 130 – 140°C without the need for further auxiliaries and is used in various areas as a hot-melt CHadhesive. 3 O O Sokalan O N VPC – vinylpyrrolidone/ vinylcaprolactam copolymer ® The incorporation of the vinylacetate comonomer results in two significant property modifications: CH Reduced moisture absorption CH CH2 CH2 The incorporation of the vinylcaprolactam comonomer n m results in two significant property modifications: Improved melting behavior Reduced moisture absorption Reduced tackiness CH3 N CH O O O CH CH2 N CH CH2 n CH2 CH n CH2 m N CH2 CH n m Sokalan® VA 64 types Sokalan® VA 64 is available both as a powder (Sokalan® VA 64 P) and as an aqueous solution (Sokalan® VA 64 W). Sokalan® VA 64 is a good example where the moisture absorption of PVP has been reduced specifically by theOpartial incorporation of O the less N Sokalan® VA 64 N comonomer vinylacetate. hydrophilic contains 40% by weight of vinylacetate. CH O O CH2 m Sokalan® VPC 55 K 65 W As in the case of Sokalan® VA 64, moisture absorption compared to the PVP homopolymer can be reduced by the partial replacement of VP by the less hydrophilic vinylcaprolactam. Sokalan® VPC 55 K 65 W is a good film former. The aqueous solution shows a reversible O cloud point N at 65°C. The glass transition temperature is 170°C.

Whilst insoluble, the outstanding property of this crosslinked polymer is its capacity to adsorb dissolved substances. A series of compounds are adsorbed by Sokalan® Cross in acid aqueous media or solvent mixtures by the formation of hydrogen bonds or as a result of dipolar interactions. These include for example phenolic substances, synthetic or natural anionic dyes of the most varied categories, such as anionically modified azo dyes, azomethine dyes and triphenylmethane dyes. Furthermore, mycotoxins, such as the aflatoxins B1 and G1, zearalenone or patulin are adsorbed to the polymer. The hydrogen bonding can be completely reversed by increasing pH. Adsorption and complexation Swelling capacity Chemical stability Insolubility Complex formation Stable in a wide pH range Toxicologically safe 10 In addition, PVPP can form complexes with iodine or hydrogen peroxide in powder form or from solutions. Unlike non-crosslinked PVP, PVPP is insoluble in both organic and inorganic solvents. For this reason, no molecular weight can be determined for PVPP. The chemical and physical crosslinking of the polymer renders Sokalan® Cross resistant to extreme pH-values and elevated temperatures.
