Quantification of hexagonal boron nitride impurities in boron nitride nanotubes via FTIR spectroscopy

Abstract

The peak ratio of in-plane versus out-of-plane FTIR absorbance is proportional to weight% of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) in boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) and can be used to quantify the purity of synthesized BNNTs.
