This invention belongs to the field of inorganic
nanofiber materials technology, specifically relating to a highly flexible
boron nanofiber (BN)
ceramic nanofiber and its preparation method. Using
boric acid and
melamine as main raw materials, this invention prepares the nanofiber through a complexation reaction, solution preparation,
electrospinning, and heat treatment. The raw materials are inexpensive, the process is simple, and it is easy to scale up production. By heating the
electrospinning needle at 90-120℃, the
viscosity of the precursor needle tip is reduced, preventing premature
crystallization of the complex and completely solving the needle clogging problem, ensuring continuous and stable
spinning, and improving
spinning efficiency and
fiber quality. The resulting BN nanofibers are continuous, have uniform
diameter, and a
smooth surface. The controllable transformation from amorphous BN to highly crystalline
hexagonal boron nitride can be achieved by adjusting the heat treatment temperature. The amorphous BN nanofiber felt has extremely low
thermal conductivity (≤0.029 W / (m·K)) and excellent compression resilience, making it suitable as a reinforcement for composite materials or directly applicable in high-temperature
filtration, high-efficiency heat insulation, and catalyst carriers.
