Glass fabrics self-cracking catalytic growth of boron nitride nanotubes

Glass fabrics were used to preparation of BNNTs with a broad diameter distribution through a new CVD-SHS method at the different holding times. The corresponding SEM images have provided direct experimental evidences for the rationality of the optimized self-cracking catalyst VLS growth mechanism (including the transformation situations of the glass fabrics and the BNNTs growth processes respectively).484
