Boron Nitride Nanotube Peapods
We demonstrate that boron nitride (BN) nanotubes can be filled "peapod" fashion with C60 molecules. Filling small-diameter BN nanotubes results in a linear chain of C60 molecules in the interior, while filling large diameter BN nanotubes leads to nanorods of crystalline C60 in the interior. Electron beam damage can be used to fuse the encapsulated C60 molecules into carbon nanotubes, leading to...
متن کاملDielectric and thermal properties of epoxy/boron nitride nanotube composites*
We report the fabrication of and investigations into the dielectric and thermal properties of epoxy/boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) composites. It was found that BNNT fillers can effectively adjust the dielectric constant of epoxy. Moreover, the thermal conductivity of epoxy was improved by up to 69 % with 5 wt % BNNTs. Our studies indicate that BNNTs are promising nanofillers for polymers, to ob...
متن کاملWater permeation through a subnanometer boron nitride nanotube.
Water-filled nanometer-scale porous structures have gained considerable attention over the past decade due to their enormous promise in substantially improving the performance and efficiency of many applications such as biological/chemical systems,1-3 water purification systems,4 fuel cell devices,5 etc. Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), due to their extraordinary physical and chemical p...
متن کاملPurification of Yard-Glass Shaped Boron Nitride Nanotubes
An efficient method for purification of Yard-Glass Shaped Boron Nitride NanoTubes (YG-BNNTs) fabricated via a Chemical Vapour Reaction (CVR) route has been developed. Impurities including carbon, Boron Nitride (BN), and Fe species in the pristine YG-BNNT sample are removed by a combined physical and chemical procedure which involv<e...
متن کاملBoron Nitride Nanotube: Synthesis and Applications
Scientists have predicted that carbon’s immediate neighbors on the periodic chart, boron and nitrogen, may also form perfect nanotubes, since the advent of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in 1991. First proposed then synthesized by researchers at UC Berkeley in the mid 1990’s, the boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) has proven very difficult to make until now. Herein we provide an update on a catalyst-free m...
