“…2 A XRD reflections of pure and various doped concentrations (2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 wt% Zr) of BN, b-d SAED profiles of (0, 2.5 and 10 wt%), and e FTIR spectra of pure and various doped concentrations (2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 wt% Zr) of BN Meanwhile, some peaks in pure sample at 1100, 1020, and 924 cm −1 are correspondingly related to B-OH, C-O, and B-N-O (Li et al 2013;Sudeep et al 2015). A minor peak at 3155 cm −1 is owed to B-OH bond that exists due to moisture (Gautam et al 2016). In short, FTIR spectra proved the formation of h-BN phase.…”
