General description

N-Vinylcaprolactam (NVCL) is an organo-soluble amphiphilic material that is soluble in solvents like benzene, isobutanol, and isopropanol. It can be used in the preparation of poly(NVCL) by free-radical polymerization at a temperature higher than its melting point.

Application

NVCL forms a temperature responsive polymer, which can be used for a variety of biomedical applications.
