Filling and emptying kinetics of carbon nanotubes in water
Abstract
The kinetics of water filling and emptying the interior channel of carbon nanotubes is studied by molecular dynamics simulations. Filling and emptying occur predominantly by sequential addition of water to or removal from a single-file chain inside the nanotube. Advancing and receding water chains are orientationally ordered. This precludes simultaneous filling from both tube ends, and forces chain rupturing to occur at the tube end where a water molecule donates a hydrogen bond to the bulk fluid. We use transition path concepts and a Bayesian approach to identify a transition state ensemble that we characterize by its commitment probability distribution. At the transition state, the tube is filled with all but one water molecule. Filling thermodynamics and kinetics depend sensitively on the strength of the attractive nanotube–water interactions. This sensitivity increases with the length of the tubes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
