A self‐organized film of boron nitride nanotube–polyaniline (BNNT–PANI) composite is fabricated by using a simple solution method. The BNNTs are fully coated with PANI as a result of strong interactions between these components (see picture). Mechanically tough, BNNTs may have potential as stabilizing additives to PANI or other polymers.
