Among these nanomaterials, due to their unique characteristics and enhanced chemical and physical properties, inorganic nanotubes have been considered one of the most interesting nanostructures. In recent years, important progress has been achieved in the production and study of these nanomaterials, including boron nitride, transition metal dichalcogenide nanotubular structures, misfit-based nanotubes and other hybrid/doped nanotubular objects. This review is devoted to the in-depth analysis of recent studies on the synthesis, atomic structures, properties and applications of inorganic nanotubes and related nanostructures. Particular attention is paid to the growth mechanism of these nanomaterials. This is a crucial point for the challenges ahead related to the mass production of high-quality defect-free nanotubes for a variety of applications. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2019. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/785219/EU/Graphene Flagship Core Project 2/GrapheneCore2 This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No H2020 785219-GrapheneCore2 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/MAT2016-79776-P info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 6.895 2019 MATERIALS SCIENCE, MULTIDISCIPLINARY 50 / 314 = 0.159 2019 Q1 T1 NANOSCIENCE & NANOTECHNOLOGY 25 / 103 = 0.243 2019 Q1 T1 CHEMISTRY, MULTIDISCIPLINARY 28 / 177 = 0.158 2019 Q1 T1 PHYSICS, APPLIED 23 / 154 = 0.149 2019 Q1 T1 2.18 2019 Nanoscience and Nanotechnology 2019 Q1 Materials Science (miscellaneous) 2019 Q1 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion (orcid)0000-0002-2071-9093 Arenal, Raul Universidad de Zaragoza Tenne, Reshef 2003 395 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
