PVP K-85 is a hygroscopic, amorphous polymer supplied as a clear aqueous solution.
PVP K-85 can be plasticized with water and most common organic plasticizers. 
PVP K-85 is considered to be physiologically inert. 
PVP K-85 is cross-linkable to a water insoluble, swellable material either in the course of vinylpyrrolidone polymerization, by addition of an appropriate multifunctional comonomer or by post-reaction, typically through hydrogen abstraction chemistry. 
PVP products are recommended for dishwashing, fabric care, household cleaning, and industrial and institutional cleaning applications.


PVP K-85 is the polymer of vinylpyrrolidone. According to the different degree of polymerization, it is further classified into soluble PVP and insoluble PVPP (polyvinyl polypyrrolidone). 
Molecular weight of the soluble PVP K-85 is 8,000 to 10,000.
The soluble PVP K-85 can be used as a precipitating agent which can be settle down through its action with polyphenols. 
Using this method, PVP K-85 is easily to have residual PVP in the alcohol. 
Due to the savings effect of PVP K-85 inside the human body, the World Health Organization doesn’t recommend to apply this substance. In recent years, the use of soluble PVP K-85 has been rare. Insoluble PVPP system had began to be used in the beer industry since the early 1960s. 
PVP K-85 has a relative molecule weight greater than the relative mass greater than 700,000.
