Hydrophilic modification is a promising method to inhibit fouling formation on ultrafiltration membrane. In this work, different mass concentrations (1%–16%) of hydrophilic polyvinylpyrrolidone were incorporated into polyethersulfone (PES) membranes fabricated by none-solvent induced phase separation. Then, polydopamine (PDA) coating on the surface of prepared membrane was carried out at pH 8.5. The morphology and structure, surface hydrophilicity, permeation flux, BSA rejection, antifouling and stability performances of PES and PDA/PES modified membranes were investigated in detail. The results indicated that PDA was successfully attached onto the membranes. Membrane hydrophilicity was evaluated by water contact angle measurement. The contact angles of modified membranes reduced remarkably, suggesting that the membrane hydrophilicities were significantly increased. The results of filtration tests, which were done by dead-end filtration of bovine serum albumin solution, showed that the properties of permeability and fouling resistance were obviously improved by PDA modification. When polyvinylpyrrolidone mass content reached 10%, flux recovery ratio of modified membrane was up to 91.23%, and its BSA rejection were over 70%. The results of stability tests showed that the modified membranes had good mechanical stability and chemical stability. This facile fabrication procedure and outstanding performances suggested that the modified membranes had a potential in treating fouling.

Rifampicin (RIF) and Isoniazid (INH) are two first-line drugs for tuberculosis treatment. Compared to isoniazid, rifampicin has poor water solubility, which results in low bioavailability. Combining the two drugs can improve the treatment effect of tuberculosis, but thier direct contact may accelerate the degradation of rifampicin, which is also considered to be another reason for RIF’s low bioavailability. In this study, the polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) was selected as the carrier and mixed with the loaded drug of rifampicin and isoniazid separately. The quick-released rifampicin/isoniazid-polyvinylpyrrolidone mingled fibers (RIPMF) were fabricated by the electrospinning method to promote the absorption of rifampicin. The results showed that isoniazid-polyvinylpyrrolidone (INH-PVP) nanofibers and rifampicin-polyvinylpyrrolidone (RIF-PVP) microfibers were mixed in RIPMF, instead of two drugs coexisting in one fiber. Rifampicin and isoniazid in the fibers changed from crystalline to amorphous states, which facilitated the release of the rifampicin from the fibers. The hydrophilicity of RIF-PVP fibers was not distinct, but that of RIPMF increased with the addition of INH-PVP fibers. The release rate of rifampicin in rifampicin-loaded fibers was twice as fast as rifampicin powder. Additionally, in vitro antibacterial test showed that RIPMF had an obvious inhibition effect on Staphylococcus aureus . Finally, the rifampicin-loaded fibers enhanced the release rate of rifampicin and improved its bioavailability. Increased bioavailability reduces the waste of rifampicin and prevents damage to the kidneys due to the massive metabolism of rifampicin in biomedicine.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the effects of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)-containing primer (PCP) on dentin bonding. Methods PVP and anhydrous ethanol were used to prepare the PCPs, which were prepared at concentrations of 0.5%, 1%, and 2% (w/v). These PCPs were subsequently applied to the dentin surface , denoted as E1, E2, and E3, respectively. In the control group, no primer was applied. Following the treatment, the dentin surfaces were subjected to analysis using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and the micro-tensile bond strength (MTBS) was evaluated. The failure mode, nanoleakage, and bonding longitudinal section were observed utilizing scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Additionally, the effect of PCPs on matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) activity was analyzed through an in situ zymography test. Data were subjected to statistical analysis using ANOVA tests (α = 0.05). Results Significant alterations in the infrared resonances associated with collagen cross-linking within the collagen matrix were observed across all PCP groups. The application of PCP demonstrated a noteworthy enhancement in micro-tensile bond strength (MTBS) compared to group C (p < 0.05). Notably, group C exhibited the lowest MTBS (41 ± 7.7 MPa), whereas group E2 demonstrated the highest MTBS (66 ± 11.9 MPa). Even after undergoing aging, the MTBS of the PCP groups remained superior to that of group C (p < 0.05). The resin tag length in the PCP groups was found to be greater than that of group C, and the occurrence of nanoleakage was comparatively lower in the PCP groups, both before and after aging. Additionally, PCP exhibited a dose-dependent inhibition of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) activity, which was statistically significant (p < 0.05). Conclusions The utilization of PCP Primer exhibits notable enhancements in bond strength, mitigates nano-leakage, and suppresses enzyme activity within the hybrid layer .

In water-soluble binder systems, polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) are often used as primary and secondary components. The PEG/PMMA binder system is clean and environmentally friendly, but the discrepancy between the crystallization temperature of PEG and the glass transition temperature of PMMA leads to the generation of pores in the feedstock. The solidification pores have an adverse impact on the final mechanical properties of the samples. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), as a crystallization inhibitor, can inhibit the formation of porosity. In this study, spherical titanium powder with a diameter of less than 45 μm was used as metal powder; the binder system consisted of PEG, PMMA and SA. Different increments of PVP (0, 10%, 20%, 30 wt.%) were added to the PEG/PMMA binder system. The uniformity of the feedstock and the open channels generated after debinding were observed using SEM. The pores’ condition before and after debinding was studied using Micro CT, and the mechanical properties of the samples were also detected. By comparing the macroscopic and microscopic morphologies of the injected samples and mechanical properties of the sintered samples, it was found that a PVP content of 20 wt.% resulted in the best properties.Keywords:metal injection molding;water-soluble binder;crystallization inhibitor;morphology;mechanical properties

In this work, Bi 2 O 3 and Bi 2 S 3 nanomaterials are modified with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). The products are defined as Bi 2 O 3 @PVP and Bi 2 S 3 @PVP, respectively. SEM demonstrates that the addition of PVP helps to reduce the size of Bi 2 O 3 and Bi 2 S 3 nanomaterials. XRD exhibits that the structure of Bi 2 O 3 changed from α-Bi 2 O 3 to β-Bi 2 O 3 @PVP due to the addition of PVP, while the Bi 2 S 3 configuration remained unchanged. XPS demonstrates that excess PVP leads to a partial reduction of trivalent Bi 3+ to metallic Bi 0 . Their supercapacitive performances are tested and it is found that appropriate PVP can improve the capacitive performance and cyclic stability of both Bi 2 O 3 and Bi 2 S 3 . The specific capacitance of Bi 2 O 3 @1 g PVP is 1.4 times that of the pristine Bi 2 O 3 , and the specific capacitance of Bi 2 S 3 @1 g PVP is 1.8 times that of the pristine Bi 2 S 3 . Compared with 82.0% Bi 2 O 3 and 79.6% Bi 2 S 3 , the cyclic retention is 94.7% and 95.2% for Bi 2 O 3 @1 g PVP and Bi 2 S 3 @1 g PVP after 10,000 cycles. The reason for enhancement is that PVP can support Bi 2 O 3 and Bi 2 S 3 materials, not only to support their structural stability but also to reduce their size and facilitate electron transfer and ion diffusion.

How to improve the bioavailability of the Sanguis Draconis (SD) is an important problem in the potential clinical applications. The aim of this study was to develop a drug delivery system to achieve high bioavailability of SD, a drug with poor water solubility. It will promote the research about new formulations of the SD and the other insoluble drugs. In this study, a highly biocompatible hydrophilic polymer, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), was selected as a carrier, mixed with different proportions of SD to produce SD-PVP microfibers by solution electrospinning. By orthogonal experiments, the optimal spinning conditions of the preparation of SD-PVP fibers were investigated. The morphology of different proportions of SD-PVP microfibers was observed by scanning electron microscopy, and the phase characteristics were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, X-ray diffraction, and differential scanning calorimetry. The hydrophilic properties of SD-PVP fiber membranes with different SD content were analyzed by the water contact angle assay. In vitro dissolution experiments were carried out to observe the dissolution of drugs in SD-PVP fiber membranes. The results showed that the diameter of SD-PVP fibers increased with the enlargement of SD content. A eutectic mixture was formed after blending PVP and SD, and the hydrogen bonds were formed between the SD and PVP with no chemical reaction occurred. The dispersion of SD in the fiber decreased with the increase of SD content. The higher the content of SD in the fiber, the more hydrophobic the fiber membrane. In vitro dissolution studies revealed that the dissolution content of SD from SD-PVP microfibers was significantly higher than that of the pure or original drug SD. However, as the SD content increased from 15% to 30%, the dissolution of the drug in the SD-PVP fibers decreased. The SD-PVP fiber prepared in this study showed much higher solubility than the original drug in vitro, which has great significance for the development of new dosage forms for the clinical application of SD, and it has a useful reference for the study of similar bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs.

In this paper, the physicochemical properties between sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in aqueous solutions were studied at 25 °C by Ubbelohde viscometer, conductivity analyzer, and fluorescence spectrophotometer. It was found that viscosity, conductivity, steady-state fluorescence, and Rayleigh scattering curve for SDBS-PVP system could be divided into three regions by two characteristic concentrations: the critical aggregation concentration (cac) and the polymer saturation point (psp). The results revealed that interactions between SDBS and PVP molecules in aqueous solutions could be explained by “necklace and bead” model. Micelle-like surfactant aggregates, formed by SDBS-free molecules, associated with PVP chains mainly by hydrophobic interaction.

The synthesis of colloidal Pt and Pt alloy nanoparticles (NPs) requires surfactants and capping agents to inhibit the overgrowth and aggregation of NPs. These reagents are also needed in the shape control synthesis of NPs to vary crystal growth rates in selected directions. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) is one of the most common water soluble capping agents for use in the synthesis of colloidal particles. However, PVP strongly adsorbed onto the surface of nanoparticles is detrimental when the NPs are used as catalysts, because surface adsorbed PVP blocks the access of reactant molecules to the active sites of nanoparticles. In this paper, we report a facile NaBH4/tert-butylamine (TBA) treatment technology for the effective removal of PVP from the surface of colloidal Pt–Pd nanocubes (NCs). This method does not change the morphology of the NPs. After treatment, the catalytic activity of Pt–Pd NCs significantly improves due to greater particle surface areas available for catalytic reactions. This facile method will find extensive applications in the fields of fuel cells, water electrolysis and photocatalytic hydrogen production.

The capability of core/sheath nanofibers prepared using coaxial electrospinning to provide adjustable biphasic drug release was investigated. Using ketoprofen (KET) as the model drug, polyvinylpyrrolidone as the sheath polymer, and ethyl cellulose as the core matrix, the coaxial process could be conducted smoothly and continuously without spinneret clogging. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy revealed linear nanofibers with homogeneous and clear core/sheath structures. Differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction verified that the core/sheath nanofibers were nanocomposites , with the drug present in the polymer matrix in an amorphous state. Attenuated total reflectance–Fourier transform infrared spectra demonstrated that the sheath polymer and core matrix were compatible with KET owing to hydrogen bonding . In vitro dissolution tests showed that the core/sheath nanofibers could provide typical biphasic drug release profiles consisting of an immediate and sustained release . The amount of drug released in the first phase was tailored by adjusting the sheath flow rate , and the remaining drug released in the second phase was controlled by a typical diffusion mechanism. The present study shows a simple and useful approach for the systematic design and fabrication of novel biomaterials with structural characteristics for providing complicated and programmed drug release profiles using coaxial electrospinning.

Flexible thermoelectric generator (f-TEG) has been considered to be a competitive candidate for powering wearable electronics and node sensor of internet-of-things. Herein, we report a polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)/Ag 2 Se composite film on nylon membrane prepared by first in-situ synthesis of PVP coated Ag 2 Se nanostructures (NSs), then vacuum assisted filtration of the NSs and finally hot pressing. High-resolution scanning and transmission electron microscope observations reveal that the PVP is located at the wall of pores and most Ag 2 Se grains are with coherent interfaces. Because of the unique microstructure and synergistic effect of the two components, an optimal composite film exhibits an ultrahigh power factor of ~ 1910 μW m −1 K −2 (corresponding ZT ~ 1.1) at 300 K and outstanding flexibility (only a 5.5% decrease in power factor after 1000 times bending around a 4 mm radius rod). An assembled 6-leg f-TEG produces 4.16 μW and the maximum power density is 28.8 W m −2 at a temperature difference of 29.1 K. This work demonstrates that insulating polymer can act as a great additive for improving both the TE properties and flexibility of inorganic TE films via fine design. The as-prepared composite film shows great promise for directly converting low-grade heat into electrical energy near room temperature.

Well-crystallized flower-like SrCO 3 :Tb 3+ phosphors have been synthesized by an inexpensive and friendly solvothermal process using polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP, K30) as an additive without further annealing treatment. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) as well as photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL) were used to characterize the resulting samples. The amount of PVP and the reaction time have strong effect on the morphology of the SrCO 3 :Tb 3+ particles. The results of XRD confirm the formation of a well-crystallized SrCO 3 phase with an orthorhombic structure. The possible formation mechanism for flower-like SrCO 3 :Tb 3+ phosphor is proposed. The SrCO 3 :Tb 3+ phosphors show the characteristic 5 D 4 – 7 F J ( J = 6, 5, 4, 3) emission lines with green emission 5 D 4 – 7 F 5 (544 nm) as the most prominent group under ultraviolet excitation.
