Abstract
⺠Molecular dynamics models were developed to predict carbon nanotube (CNT) dispersion in water. ⺠The models can predict the effective interactions between two carbon nanotubes in water. ⺠The effect of CNT length and diameter on CNT interactions in water was investigated. ⺠The effect of surfactant structure on CNT interactions was investigated. ⺠CNT surface energy causes the strong interactions between the CNTs in water.
