SBA capabilities narrative
BNNT, LLC tubes are synthesized using the high temperature/high pressure (HTP) method, also called the pressurized vapor/condenser (PVC) method. This method produces highly flexible, high aspect ratio BNNTs with high crystallinity. They are few to single walled tubes with 2 and 3 walls being the most common morphology. The as-grown material has a cotton-like appearance with an unusually low tap density.
