Popis: Barium titanate (BaTiO3) peapod nanocomposites were prepared by the controlled capture of nanoparticles (NPs) in scrolling hexaniobate (HNB) nanosheets. BaTiO3 NPs and proton-exchanged potassium hexaniobate were treated solvothermally at 220 ��C for 6 h in toluene to produce linear NP chains confined within multiwalled HNB nanoscrolls. This method consistently produced nanopeapods with average filling fractions greater than 70%. The controlled introduction of nanocomponents along with a combination of oleylamine and oleic acid surfactants was critical to the success of these reactions. The ability to form BaTiO3@HNB significantly expands the number of important peapod composites accessible by the controlled NP capture.
