. For the boric acid-ammonia system, the dehydration and deamination process is accelerated on the air-water interface. In a spraying-recirculating microdroplet reactor, milligram-scale quantities of BNQDs with an average diameter of ∼8.5 nm are produced within 1 h, establishing a green, bottom-up route for nanomaterial synthesis by exploiting the intrinsic reactivity of water microdroplets.
Song et al. (Fri,) studied this question.
