Halloysite Nanotubes (HNTs) Description
Halloysite Nanotubes (HNTs) are a natural tubular material with attractive advantages such as unique micro-spatial structure, large aspect ratio, high-tube cavity volume, nontoxicity, and wide application. Benefiting from the semblable tubular structure with CHNTs, HNTs also possess some similarities in many fields, especially in the carrier materials. HNTs show superior character peculiarities when used as drug carriers or zymophore owing to the larger cavity volume and higher biocompatibility.
