Nanotechnology as it stands today is already an impressive field offering a host of benefits to a wide range of sectors. Now, it appears that may be evolving further due to a new material being heavily researched and now marketed by the National Research Council of Canada in the form of boron nitride nanotubes, or BNNTs. Exceeding the benefits of the carbon nanotube, BNNTs are able to offer extreme strength and lightweight qualities, but they also are able to withstand extremely high temperatures. It is thought that because of this, BNNTs may have enormous potential in additive manufacturing, as well as numerous other processes for making components such as windshields and other important parts for automotive, aerospace, and far more.
