“…Furthermore, the electrophilic nature can be enhanced by following analogous strategies i. e. by doping with high electronegative atoms which in turn can augment their sorptive performance. Similarly, ‐NH 2 groups were attached to the h‐BN surface via Lewis base interactions supported through ultrasonic etching in the presence ammonia solution . On the other hand, the ‐OH groups present on the surface can be transformed to ‐NH 2 by simply heating with silane coupling reagents .…”

“…It may be noted that unlike graphene‐based nanomaterials, the hydrophobic nature of h‐BN restricts its oxidation via the use of hot Aqua Regia or piranha or reflux with nitric acid, etc. Thus, a new novel covalent functionalization technique employing the introduction of organic peroxide moieties followed by subsequent thermolysis and hydrolysis by strong oxidizing agents was introduced ,. Alternatively, the graphene‐like structure of h‐BN also promotes non‐covalent functionalization mainly via π‐π, π‐EDA interactions.…”

Hexagonal boron nitride, known as white graphene has attracted the water industry as a replacement to both classical bulk and nano‐adsorbent. Its structural resemblance to graphene, resistance to corrosion, chemical oxidation, high thermal stability has attracted the focus of the researchers. On top of that its intrinsic material properties such as porosity, surface functional groups, band gap, etc. can be engineered to complement the real‐time applications. All the aforementioned strengthened their potential candidature as alternative nano‐adsorbent as well as energy material. The distinct characteristics like high selectivity, affinity, and the polar nature are auxiliary benefits for the adsorptive process. Further, the higher thermal stability of the material paves facile and ease regeneration. However, the wider band position limits its attributes as energy materials and was resolved by simple doping with suitable impurities. The authors drafted review, learning the vacuum that consolidates the mechanistic features like the development of nanoarchitecture, porosity, and bandgap engineering of the said material. Hence, the present review unambiguously discusses the role of various governing parameters for the development of novel porous Hexagonal boron nitride, along with characteristics of typical energy materials.

“…Although many methods of surface modification have been used to reduce the interfacial thermal resistance, it is still a complicated task to reduce it by this means due to the chemical inertness of fillers. 18,19 For instance, to enhance the compatibility between graphene and a polymeric matrix, modified graphene has to be obtained by the reduction of graphene oxide originating from graphite. On the other hand, fillers after modification might produce a decrement in TC even if the compatibility is somehow improved.…”

Interfacial thermal resistance between matrix and filler is one of the most serious factors hindering heat transfer in composites. Here, a type of liquid crystalline polyester (LCP) containing phenyl pendant groups was intended to blend with pristine graphite by interfacial interaction. The intensity at 26.6° of the wide angle X‐ray diffraction pattern which exceeded that of pristine graphite indicated the existence of a strong interfacial π–π interaction. Both DSC and XRD tests showed that the ordered structure of the LCP matrix is directly affected by the mass fraction of graphite, indicating the interfacial interaction between LCP and graphite. By increasing the content of graphite, the thermal diffusivity showed a sharp increment by 1004%. The maximum thermal conductivity of the composite reached 28.613 W m−1 K−1, which was seven times that of traditional thermoplastic blended with graphite. Compared with the data calculated using effective medium theory, interfacial interaction plays a significant role in enhancing the thermal conductivity of the composites. Furthermore, the maximum tensile strength of this series of composites reached 13.3 MPa and the maximum Young's modulus reached 1067 MPa, exhibiting a potential guideline for further applications in flexible electronics. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry

“…Similar with the lattice structure of graphene, h‐BN sheet is a two‐dimensional honeycomb structure with B atoms and N atoms alternately arranged to form sp 2 hybrid. The B atoms and N atoms of BN are connected by a strong covalent bond, while van der Waals forces exist between the layers . This special structure render h‐BN powder as a traditional lubricant.…”

In this paper, BN‐BiOI materials are prepared via an ionic liquid 1‐butyl‐3‐methyl‐imidazolium iodine ([Bmim]I)‐assisted solvothermal method. Through a series of characterizations (XRD, TEM, DRS, PC, and so on), the structures, morphologies, and optical properties of BN‐BiOI samples are investigated. The photocatalytic activity of the graphene‐analogue BN‐BiOI materials is evaluated by the degradation of methyl orange (MO) under visible light irradiation (λ > 400 nm). The results show the 3 wt.% BN‐BiOI composites exhibit the highest performance. The improved photocatalytic activity is attributed to the superior light absorption and higher separation efficiency of the electron–hole pairs by the introduction of graphene‐analogue BN.
