Polyvinyl lactam is a water-soluble synthetic polymer produced via free-radical polymerization of N-vinyl lactams. Its chemical formula varies by monomer, typically represented as (C₆H₉NO)ₙ for poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone), with CAS 9003-39-8 for the common PVP variant.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent degradation. Avoid inhalation of dust; use appropriate respiratory protection during handling. While generally safe, high molecular weight variants may require specific regulatory compliance for injectable medical applications.
