Abstract

Carbon nanotubes attract much attention because of their unusual structures and properties. And, like graphite, they are fairly unreactive chemically. In order to capitalize on their extraordinary properties on a macroscopic scale, the chemical modification of nanotubes is worth exploration. In this paper, the functionalization of single-walled nanotube bundles, carbon nanotube/polymer composites and carbon nanopeapods is explored using polyatomicion beam deposition in classical molecular dynamics simulations.
