Abstract

This contribution summarizes the present-state of knowledge on vinylpyrrolidone, its (co)polymers, crosslinked structures based on it, and offers a rich survey of various applications, with a special focus on (bio)medicine. A brief history of this material is also given. Methods of preparation and technical parameters of both vinylpyrrolidone monomer and its various polymers are described. Important data are presented in tables.
