Description
Summary:A novel acetabuliform nanoporous hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) was synthesized via a facile solid state reaction. The purified sample was characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectrometer, electron energy-loss spectroscopy, electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and N 2 porosimetry. The results show that the obtained acetabuliform BN nanoparticles has a uniform diameter distribution from 30 to 80 nm, a surface area of 120 m 2 g −1 and an average pore centered at 3.86 nm with a narrow pore distribution.
