Popis: Boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs), like carbon nanotubes (CNTs), possess an impressive collection of properties that motivate their use in composite materials, particularly in areas where CNTs are limited (e.g., high-temperature processing and applications) or unsuitable (e.g., electric insulation). The recent advent of pilot-scale production and of commercial BNNT materials offers improved opportunities to study BNNT science and develop BNNT-based composites and applications. Here, we highlight recent advances in BNNT manufacturing and commercialization and the properties and performance of BNNT-based nanocomposites including polymer, metal, and ceramic composites and envision a future landscape of BNNT applications.
