Hollow and Threadlike Nanostructures of Boron Carbide

Theoretical and Experimental Chemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

An original low-temperature method is proposed for the synthesis of boron carbide from simple materials. It made it possible to obtain a powdered product in the form of hollow and threadlike nanostructures. The boron carbide nanotubes are shorter than bundles of nanotubes. The boron carbide nanostructures are grown from vapor-phase reagents at a high-temperature nanocenter, the enhanced reactivity of which is maintained as a result of the exothermic effect of the reaction.
