Abstract
The method of the present invention for making a BNNT fabric comprises dispersing Boron-Nitride nanotubes at loading greater than 5 weight % in an electrospinning delivery solution; electrospinning the delivery solution onto a collector thereby forming a mat comprised of BNNT-PAN nano fibers; and, finally removing any electrospinning delivery solution from the mat leaving a fabric of intertwined Boron-Nitride nanotubes.
