About Plasdone povidone C grades
Plasdonea povidone
Chemistry: PVP polymers and VP derivatives
We offers a comprehensive range of Plasdone povidones (PVP). Plasdone povidones are a family of water-soluble polymers based on N-vinylpyrrolidone that combine a unique set of properties for application in a wide variety of dosage forms. Plasdone povidones are commonly used as binders for the development of tablet formulations, whether manufactured by wet granulation, dry granulation or direct compression. Plasdone K polymers are used in solid-dispersion formulations to enhance the solubility of active pharmaceutical ingredients and increase bioavailability.
Plasdonea povidone C grades are supplied with low pyrogen levels and can increase solubilization or inhibit crystallization in parenteral dosage forms.
The regulatory compliance information for all Ashland products varies by product family and grade. For specific data about the grade you are interested in, please refer to our Excipient Information Package, now called PRD, and the Certificate of Analysis.
Superior Solubility and PurityPlasdoneTM povidone C grades stand out with their exceptional solubility in water and most organic solvents, ensuring ease of integration into diverse formulations. With a purity greater than 99%, minimal residue on ignition, and heavy metals content below 10 ppm, they effectively meet the rigorous safety and quality criteria required for sensitive pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications.
Wide Applicability Across IndustriesThese povidone polymers are favored for their multifunctional properties as binders, film-formers, and stabilizers in pharmaceutical tablets, topical products, and cosmetics. Their compatibility with most excipients allows formulators substantial flexibility, while customizable grade options address specific molecular weight or viscosity needs for tailored performance.
Trusted Regulatory Compliance and SafetyPlasdoneTM povidone C grades strictly conform to USP/NF, Ph. Eur., and JP standards. The products meet critical microbiological and endotoxin requirements, ensuring pharmaceutical-grade quality. Secure packaging options and a five-year shelf life help guarantee integrity during storage and transport, offering both reliability and peace of mind to professionals.
