Directed assembly of barium titanate nanopeapods via solvothermal processing with a mixed surfactant system

Barium titanate (BaTiO3) peapod nanocomposites were prepared by the controlled capture of nanoparticles (NPs) in scrolling hexaniobate (HNB) nanosheets. BaTiO3 NPs and proton-exchanged potassium hexaniobate were treated solvothermally at 220 °C for 6 h in toluene to produce linear NP chains confined...

description Barium titanate (BaTiO3) peapod nanocomposites were prepared by the controlled capture of nanoparticles (NPs) in scrolling hexaniobate (HNB) nanosheets. BaTiO3 NPs and proton-exchanged potassium hexaniobate were treated solvothermally at 220 °C for 6 h in toluene to produce linear NP chains confined within multiwalled HNB nanoscrolls. This method consistently produced nanopeapods with average filling fractions greater than 70%. The controlled introduction of nanocomponents along with a combination of oleylamine and oleic acid surfactants was critical to the success of these reactions. The ability to form BaTiO3@HNB significantly expands the number of important peapod composites accessible by the controlled NP capture.
