Abstract:
The condensation of water inside multiwalled carbon nanotubes has been monitored and controlled using environmental scanning electron microscopy. Undersaturated vapor condenses inside nanotubes and forms nanometer-thick water films. Simultaneously, nanotubes deform and decrease their apparent diameter. When the vapor pressure in the chamber approaches the saturation pressure, we observe the formation of menisci and spontaneous buckling of the nanotubes. We derive a criterion of the buckling instability caused by capillary condensation. Remarkably, the buckling criterion appears to be independent of the meniscus shape. Using our experiments and models, we estimated the circumferential Young's modulus of large-diameter carbon nanotubes with disordered wall structure produced by the chemical vapor deposition method (CVD) to be E-theta theta approximate to 13-18 MPa. It appears to be at least 2 orders of magnitude lower than the longitudinal modulus of nanotubes produced by arc !
discharge or catalytic CVD methods. The reported experiments and proposed theory suggest possible applications of "soft" nanotubes as sensors to probe minute concentrations of absorbable gases and vapors.

Title:
Maximum Velocity for a Single Water Molecule Entering a Carbon Nanotube

Abstract:
Carbon nanotubes, despite their hydrophobic nature, rapidly fill with water and allow super fast fluid flow through their interior due to the almost frictionless nanotube surface. The question arises as to whether it is possible to maximize the uptake (suction energy) of water and thus generate the highest possible fluid flow. In this paper, we outline the concepts of an acceptance condition and the suction energy and subsequently examine the suction characteristics of a single water molecule entering a carbon nanotube. In particular, we find that for the hydrogen atoms oriented towards the tube end, the radius of the carbon nanotube must be at least 3.464 angstrom (or 0.3464 nm) for acceptance of a water molecule, and that a radius of 3.95 angstrom provides the maximum uptake or suction energy.
