You can use it as stabilizer/modifier/capping ligand of Al2O3 although Al(OH)3 is almost amorphous in nature, which may convert into alumina by annealing. I think PEG is superior than PVP in this regards.

Mohammad Kooti

We have used pvp for the synthesis of a number of NPs with success. Why don't you give it a try?

Hazim Al- Zubaidi

Yes you can use polyvinylpyrrolidone for the synthesis of Al(OH)3 as a stabilizing ligand since it contains nitrogen.
