Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of nanomaterial preparation, in particular to a method for preparing boron nitride nanotubes. Background technique
[0002] Boron nitride nanotubes have a similar structure to carbon nanotubes. In 1994, Rubio et al. predicted the existence of boron nitride nanotubes theoretically. In 1995, Chopra et al. successfully synthesized boron nitride nanotubes, thus opening the Prelude to the study of boron nanotubes. Boron nitride nanotubes have excellent chemical stability and heat resistance. Theoretical and experimental studies have shown that they are wide-gap semiconductors, and their electrical properties are not affected by their nanotube diameter and chirality. Boron nitride nanotubes also have high toughness and high strength comparable to carbon nanotubes, and can be used for reinforcement, toughening and modification of materials. The unique properties of boron nitride nanotubes have important application value i...
