Reviews

... an excellent information source on the state-of-the-art status of boron nitride (BN) ... a handy knowledge bank to get to know BN and seek potential ways of using it. -Yunshen Zhou, Ph.D., Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Nebraska-Lincoln

This textbook is likely to become 'the handbook' on boron nitride nanomaterials. Researchers working on classical carbon nanotube and graphene-based materials will also benefit from taking a closer look at developments in the emerging field of boron nitride nanomaterials. -Pall Thordarson, Associate Professor, School of Chemistry, University of New South Wales This book gives detailed insight into the exciting field of boron nitride nanostructures. It is most definitely one of the most comprehensive books of its type in this field and well worth reading. -Amanda Ellis, ARC Future Fellow and Professor in Chemistry/Nanotechnology, Flinders University ... an excellent information source on the state-of-the-art status of boron nitride (BN) ... a handy knowledge bank to get to know BN and seek potential ways of using it. -Yunshen Zhou, Ph.D., Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Nebraska-Lincoln

Author Information

Professor Ying (Ian) Chen is the chair of nanotechnology at the newly established Institute for Frontier Materials at Deakin University and node head of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Functional Nanomaterials and a member of the College of Experts of the Australian Research Council. A world-renowned expert on nanotubes and ball milling, Dr. Chen invented the ball-milling and annealing method for mass production of boron nitride nanotubes, which led to the world’s first commercialization of boron nitride nanotubes in 2002. Professor Chen contributed to three bestselling nanotechnology books published by CRC Press. His publications have also been cited more than 3,500 times in the past 10 years. He is a fellow of the Institute of Physics and a member of the American Physics Institute, the Materials Research Society, the Australian Materials Union, and the International Mechanochemical Association. His research focuses on nanomaterials for energy storage (batteries and capacitors), environmental protection, and medical applications.
