The dynamic surface tension and the complex dynamic surface elasticity of poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) solutions were measured in the concentration range 10^-5 wt% up to about 1 wt%. The surface tension changed slowly with time at low (<10^-4 wt%) and high concentrations (>0.1 wt%). At low concentrations this is a consequence of the slow transport by diffusion of PVP molecules from the depth of the bulk phase to the surface. At high concentrations the time effect is unexpected and probably the result of PVP contamination of high surface activity. The dynamic surface elasticity of PVP solutions gradually decreases with increasing concentration up to the range of high concentrations (>0.1 wt%) where an abrupt increase in the elasticity caused by the adsorbed impurity is observed. At low and medium concentrations the viscoelastic behavior of PVP adsorbed films is similar to that of the previously investigated poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(ethylene glycol) films and is determined by the number of loops and tails protruding into the bulk phase.
