Abstract:Titanium diboride (TiB 2 ) is a member of the AlB 2 -type layered metal boride family; the materials of this family are receiving renewed research interest owing to their amenability to nanoscaling. Earlier, we showed that TiB 2 can be nanoscaled to yield quasi 2D nanostructures following a dissolution− recrystallization approach. This approach yielded nanosheets that were chemically functionalized with oxy-functional groups. Also, these nanosheets could inherently form a gel-like substance. In this work, we s… Show more
