Ultrathin boron nitride nanosheets are fabricated and detailed morphological and structural microscopic studies of are carried out. Polymeric composites containing BN nanosheets exhibit a remarkable reduction of the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and possess enhanced elastic modulus and strength.
