Ultrasound-Assisted Facile Green Synthesis of Hexagonal Boron Nitride Nanosheets and Their Applications

Abstract: In this study, a facile, novel, ecofriendly method has been demonstrated for the fabrication of hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets (h-BNNs) by ultrasound-assisted exfoliation of h-boron nitride (h-BN) using various extracts of plant materials. Plant extract can be used for nanoparticle synthesis by acting as a reducing, capping, and stabilizing agent. Similarly, plant extract can function as a green surfactant by adsorbing on the surface of h-BN and, by weakening the interlayer interaction, slowly exfoliating … Show more

“…[48] An ecofriendly method has been recently developed by B. S. Kim and coworkers for the fabrication of hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets (h-BNNs) by ultrasoundassisted exfoliation of h-boron nitride (h-BN) using various extracts of plant materials. [49] Here, plant extract could be acting as a reducing, capping and stabilizing agent for nanoparticle synthesis. Additionally, Plant extract can also function as a green surfactant by adsorbing on the surface of h-BN and weakening the interlayer interaction, slowly exfoliating h-BN in the form of layer h-BNNs (Figures 2 and 3).…”

“…The discovery of two dimensional (2D) materials, properties like graphene, increases rapidly in the research field with their remarkable applications [1–3] . Recently, hexagonal boron nitride (h‐BN) is a new invention as 2D material, whose physical properties are very similar to graphite [4,5] .…”

“…The treatment can generate some other defects in HO-BNs. If the temperature reaches 1500°C, the products have to be hydroxylated by the above methods [47][48][49][50][51][52][53] h-BNNSs Sonication-assisted exfoliation It is a facile method to directly exfoliate BN bulk into HO-BNNSs The hydroxyl degree is relatively low For a high hydroxyl degree, some additives have to be introduced, such as, acid, base, salt, etc [31,[55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63] Ball-milling-assisted exfoliation Situations similar to ''sonication-assisted exfoliation'' [64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72] Hummer's-like routes The use of strong oxidants (i.e., H 2 SO 4 , H 2 O 2 , KMnO 4 , and their mixtures) requires an extra attention Sometimes the oxidization process can lead to the presence of a few by-products of BN dots [73][74][75][76] Multi-step functionalization method It can be divided into two stages: one is from BN to BNNS and then to HO-BNNS, the other is from BN to HO-BN and then to HO-BNNS [82][83][84][85][86][87][88][89][90][91][92] Bottom-up routes It generally requires high temp...…”
