Abstract: Emerging nanotechnology in the early 1990s introduced nanoscaled and advanced materials such as Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) with specific chemical structure and exceptional unique properties. Generally, among the various nanostructures particularly, nanotubes have shown their specific values due to their inherent characteristics. With the time being, new vistas were opened for developing other nanotube-based materials due to their remarked mechanical strength and versatile applications. In recent decades, BNNTs with promising applicability have been synthesized via several methods. This review highlights the synthetic strategies of Boron Nitride Nanotubes (BNNTs) with their potential applications in various applied sectors including energy, electronics and biomedical applications.
