摘要
Boron nitride (BN) fullerene materials such as nanotubes, nanocapsules and nanocages were synthesized from LaB6, Co, Pd, Ti, Ni and Cu with boron powder by using an arc-melting method. For the BN nanocapsules with Co and CoOx nanoparticles, argon element was detected by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and the nanocapsules showed superparamagnetic property. Thermogravimetry/differential thermogravimetric analysis of BN nanomaterials produced from LaB6 and Pd/boron powder showed possibility of hydrogen storage of similar to3 wt.%.
