Synthesis, Characterization, and Properties of Multi-walled Tubular Silicon Nitride Nanotube

Description

We attempted to synthesize idealized silicon nitride nanotube (SiNNT) in an effort to realize potential materials for hydrogen storage by using the similar synthetic method employed previously for the synthesis of carbon nitride nanotube (CNNT). We prepared SiNNT in a stainless steel autoclave by the reaction of silicon chloride and sodium azide in benzene at 220 .deg. C in nitrogen ambient for 15 h. The molar ratio of sodium chloride and sodium azide was 1.0:4.0. We characterized the as-synthesized SiNNT by means of TEM, XPS, XRD, and porosimetry
