USES: 

Medical Uses:
Polyvinylpyrrolidone is used as a binder in many pharmaceutical tablets
Polyvinylpyrrolidone simply passes through the body when taken orally.

Polyvinylpyrrolidone added to iodine forms a complex called povidone-iodine that possesses disinfectant properties.
This complex is used in various products like solutions, ointment, pessaries, liquid soaps and surgical scrubs. 

Polyvinylpyrrolidone is known under the trade names Pyodine and Betadine, among a plethora of others.
Polyvinylpyrrolidone is used in pleurodesis (fusion of the pleura because of incessant pleural effusions). 
For this purpose, povidone iodine is equally effective and safe as talc, and may be preferred because of easy availability and low cost.

Polyvinylpyrrolidone is used in some contact lenses and their packaging solutions. 
Polyvinylpyrrolidone reduces friction, thus acting as a lubricant, or wetting agent, built into the lens. 

Polyvinylpyrrolidone is used as a lubricant in some eye drops, e.g. 
Polyvinylpyrrolidone was used as a plasma volume expander for trauma victims after the 1950s.
Polyvinylpyrrolidone is not preferred as volume expander due to its ability to provoke histamine release and also interfere with blood grouping.

Autopsies have found that crospovidone (PVPP) contributes to pulmonary vascular injury in substance abusers who have injected pharmaceutical tablets intended for oral consumption.
The long-term effects of crospovidone or povidone within the lung are unknown.

Technical Uses:
Polyvinylpyrrolidone is also used in many technical applications:

*as a special additive for batteries, ceramics, fiberglass, inks, and inkjet paper, and in the chemical-mechanical planarization process
*as an emulsifier and disintegrant for solution polymerization
*to increase resolution in photoresists for cathode ray tubes (CRT)
*in aqueous metal quenching
*for production of membranes, such as dialysis and water purification filters
*as a binder and complexation agent in agricultural applications such as crop protection, seed treatment and coating
*as a thickening agent in tooth whitening gels
*as an aid for increasing the solubility of drugs in liquid and semi-liquid dosage forms (syrups, soft gelatine capsules) and as an inhibitor of recrystallisation
*as an additive to Doro's RNA extraction buffer
*as a liquid-phase dispersion enhancing agent in DOSY NMR
*as a surfactant, reducing agent, shape controlling agent and dispersant in nanoparticle synthesis and their self-assembly
*as a stabilizing agent in all inorganic solar cells

Other Uses:
Polyvinylpyrrolidone binds to polar molecules exceptionally well, owing to its polarity. 
This has led to its application in coatings for photo-quality ink-jet papers and transparencies, as well as in inks for inkjet printers.
