Definition

ChEBI: A vinyl polymer composed of repeating -CH2-CR- units where R is a 4-pyridyl group.

General Description

Poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PVP) is a pyridine containing polymer that is used in the surface modification by immobilizing the atoms present on the surface.

Purification Methods

Purify it by repeated precipitation from solutions in EtOH and dioxane, and then EtOH and ethyl acetate. Finally, freeze-dry a tert-butanol solution.
