The K value of PVP is actually the characteristic value associated with the relative viscosity of the PVP aqueous solution, and the viscosity is the physical quantity associated with the molecular weight of the polymer.
Therefore, the average molecular weight of the PVP can be characterized by the K value.
Usually the greater the K value, the greater the viscosity, the stronger the adhesion.

Molecular weight of polymer is generally expressed as weight average(Mw), number average and viscosity average.
