Abstract

In this work, Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations are used to study the interfacial properties (interaction energy, frictional sliding resistance and transverse tension) of flattened carbon nanotubes (flCNTs) - amorphous carbon (AC) as a function of density of AC and flCNT-AC crosslinks. The ReaxFF reactive force field was used to develop the models and predict the interfacial properties.
