Povidone K17 is a low molecular weight polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) grade produced via free radical polymerization of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone. Its chemical formula is (C6H9NO)n with CAS No. 9003-39-8, serving primarily as a binder and disintegrant in pharmaceutical formulations.
Store in tightly closed containers below 25°C to prevent moisture absorption. Avoid inhalation of dust during handling; use appropriate PPE. Not recommended for intravenous injection due to potential renal toxicity risks associated with high molecular weight fractions.
