In this paper, we investigate the adhesion energy at the interface between single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and polyethylene matrixwith and without an external magnetic field. The carbon nanotubes are of two different chiralities—armchair (10, 10), and zigzag (10, 0), and the external high magnetic field is of 25 Tesla intensity. The study employs molecular dynamics simulations and concludes that the magnetic field decreases the interfacial adhesion energy although it increases the individual potential energies of the nanotubes, polyethylene, and composite.

AbstractThe tendency of single wall carbon nanotubes to organize into crystalline ropes and the aggregation of the ropes into tangled networks act as an obstacle for most applications, and diminishes the special properties of the individual tubes. We describe a procedure for dispersing as-produced nanotube powder in aqueous solutions of Gum Arabic. Dispersion results in spontaneous exfoliation of nanotubes ropes into individual tubes, as demonstrated via x-ray scattering and electron microscopy.
