Abstract
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.
