Abstract
⺠Chemisorption of hydrogen atoms on the sidewalls of armchair SWCNTs with SW defect has been performed. ⺠The influence of tube diameter on the reaction energies and the reactivity of hydrogen chemisorption SWCNTs has been explored. ⺠Endohedral adsorption is energetically more favorable than exohedral adsorption for larger diameter (7, 7) and (8, 8) SWCNTs. ⺠The central CC bond of SW defect inside the (7, 7) and (8, 8) SWCNT sidewalls is more reactive than that in perfect sites.
