  • Where I can get PVP?

    Posted by Gororo on February 12, 2018 at 8:55 pm

    Hi everyone! In my country it’s real hard to find PVP for hair styling products. May be you know some international websites, where I can order that synthetic polymer or may be some others? Thanks!

    I’m from Russia. We have a lot of companies, which can offer a good choice of ingridiets to large manufactures, but to small it’s not.

    It is hard to believe you can’t find PVP. :)
    PVP is very much used in the solid forms (tablets, capsules, granules, pellets) 
    Are you looking for a specific type of PVP?

    K30 and k90 are both used in solid forms. You can look for the solid form distributors too.

    You can probably find even cheaper.

    Sorry @”DRBOB@VERDIENT.BIZ” it was meant for the initiator as it was a request without any mention of location.

    @em88
    DIY suppliers here also don’t sell PVP. And the MOQ’s from BASF etc are simply too high.

    @Doreen81 hence I never recommended any supplier, nothing short of a pallet as MOQ. Abundant though in Far East too.

    Yes, PVP is used by heavy manufacturing in such large amounts, if you ask for less than 100Kg you’ll get a funny look.

    if you’re happy about buying chemicals from China, several sellers on Alibaba have a minimum order quantity of 1 kg

    I just purchased a pound from this place. Very reasonable.
