Since boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) was first reported, it has received a lot of interest for their excellent thermal, electrical and mechanical properties, and they have a broad spectrum of potential applications such as in piezoelectric materials, reinforcement of materials and electrothermal insulation materials. However, for practical application of BNNTs, control of the morphologies of BNNTs is essential for leading to the enhancement of their properties. To investigate the morphological behavior of BNNTs, we prepared BNNT/Block copolymer complexes that depend on various interactions. Samples were prepared by increasing the BNNT content of the complex, and the block copolymer used was Pluronic P65 (PEO20-PPO30-PEO20). The various self-assembled structures of complexes were measured by small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) technique upon heating. Here, we report the highly aligned self-assembled structures of BNNT/block copolymer complexes depend on hydrophobic interaction. |
