Water-Induced interactions between carbon nanoparticles

Article Abstract:

Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to study the hydration of [C.sub.60] fullerenes, carbon nanotunes, and graphene sheets in aqueous solution and the nature of water-induced interactions between these carbon nanoparticles. The hydration of these nonpolar carbon nanoparticles does not exhibit classical hydrophobic character due to the high density of surface atoms resulting in strong water-surface disperse interactions.
