The effects of grafted amine groups on the elastic properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes Original Research Article

The molecular dynamics method is used to investigate the effect of amine grafts on the elastic properties of armchair (5,5) (10,10) and zigzag (9,0) (18,0) single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). The results show that Young’s moduli of armchair (5,5) (10
