Surfactant-assisted individualization and dispersion of boron nitride nanotubes
Abstract
Boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) are novel material building blocks with useful thermal, electronic, and optical properties; their stable dispersion in water would enable fundamental studies as well as novel applications. Here we address the dispersion of BNNTs in aqueous solution using surfactants with varying properties.
