Composites formed through embedding of high‐concentration boron nitride nanotubes in polymers are reported by C. Y. Zhi et al. on page 1857 . The composites possess high thermal conductivity, high break‐over voltage, low coefficient of thermal expansion, and other favorable properties. These polymeric composites are promising highly thermoconductive electrically insulating materials for a range of applications.
