N-Vinyl-2-pyrrolidone NVP CAS 88-12-0 is a clear to slightly yellow liquid, crystallization under 13℃. It’s easy to hydrolyze and polymerize itself but It can remain as liquid at room temperature for extended periods. Usually,stabilized with NaOH or TMHPO as polymerization inhibitor.

N-Vinylpyrrolidone NVP is an organic compound consisting of a 5-membered lactam linked to a vinyl group. It is a colorless liquid although commercial samples can appear yellowish. It is produced industrially by reacting 2-pyrrolidone with acetylene. It is the precursor to polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), an important synthetic material. The NVP monomer is commonly used as a reactive diluent in ultraviolet and electron-beam curable polymers applied as inks, coatings or adhesives.
