Boron nitride: A high potential support for combustion catalysts

Influence of the nitrogen flow rate on the order and structure of PECVD boron nitride thin films

“…This attraction leads to a shift of the binding energies to higher energies in the XPS spectrum. The calibration of peak positions is done according to B1s peak, which is located at 190.5 eV [9] although the calibration with respect to O1s peak at 532.0 eV is also possible [10]. Atomic sensitivity factors (ASF) of boron, oxygen and nitrogen are taken as r B = 0.13, r O = 0.66 and r N = 0.42, respectively.…”

Anisotropic Hexagonal Boron Nitride Nanomaterials: Synthesis and Applications

“…Pd loaded -porous BN was proven to be a catalyst that could be used under hard conditions, like methane oxidation or hydrocarbon cracking without exhibiting any decrease in activity [181].…”

Combustion synthesis of boron nitride via magnesium reduction using additives

“…Recently, h-BN has been discovered to have potential applications as a hydrogen storage medium [4][5][6][7], high temperature reaction catalyst support [8][9][10], filler in high thermal conductivity composites [11,12], adsorbent in wastewater treatment [7], nanovector for targeted drug delivery [13] and deep ultraviolet light emitter in optoelectronics [14,15].…”

“…Many methods have been developed for synthesis of hexagonal BN including classical high-temperature routes [1,3] (e.g., reaction of boron oxide and ammonia [16], direct nitridation of boron with N 2 [1] and carbothermal reduction and nitridation of boron oxide [17]), vapor deposition methods (e.g., reaction of boron trichloride and ammonia [18]), condensed-phase pyrolysis techniques (e.g., thermal decomposition of borazene or bisborazinylamine [19]), solid-state metathesis [7,20,21], pyrolysis [4,10,12,22] and combustion synthesis [23][24][25]. Most of these methods have to be carried out under a high temperature heating or a high N 2 pressure and require a long processing time.…”
