Molecular dynamics simulation of single-walled silicon carbide nanotubes immersed in water

- A relation is suggested to predict the density of water confined inside SWSiCNTs.
- Diffusion mechanism of confined water in SWSiCNTs is changed by nanotube diameter.
- RDF profiles of water confined in SWSiCNTs vs. of nanotube diameter are shown.
- Hydrogen bonding in water confined in SWSiCNTs is less than what in SWCNTs.
- Water molecules permeate faster in SWSiCNTs from that in other types of nanotubes.
