Facile Synthesis and Simulated of Some Structures of Boron Nitride Nanotubes

Boron nitride nanotubes were synthesized in two simple steps. In step one; Boron was synthesized by used of boric; during thermal treatments H3BO3 changes to B2O3. Then, boron powder was made by adding magnesium and utilization of heat treatments in 800 for 3 hours. Then boron nitride nanotubes were made by reaction of boron powder, iron oxide, and ammonium chloride at 600 for 12 h. Boron and boron nitride characterized by XRD and FTIR. Then from Huckel’s law calculated atom charge in twoboron nitride nanotubes structures:chirality indices (10,0), tube-length 25.0 Å (zig-zag structure) and chirality indices10,5), tube- length 25.0 Å.
