Abstract

Boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) filled with zirconium oxide (ZrO2) nanorods were synthesized by the improved solid-gas multiphase reaction method. The structure of ZrO2 nanorods was monoclinic single crystal or multi-twin crystal. The diameters of ZrO2 nanorods varied from 20 to 40 nm. The inner diameters of BNNTs were similar to those of corresponding ZrO2 nanorods. The BNNTs exhibited open end, closed end, or an end connected with a short tube grown from the tip of the ZrO2 nanorod. No preferred orientation was observed for the growth of ZrO2 nanorods.
