Rheological Properties and Its Effect on the Lubrication Mechanism of PVP K30 and PVP 40-50 G as Artificial Synovial Fluids

The effect of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) on the rheological properties of joint prostheses is still unclear, despite its good lubricity and biocompatibility. In the present work, PVP K30 and PVP 40-50 G solutions at different concentrations were analyzed for rheological and lubrication properties. T...
