The effects of boron doping and boron grafts on the mechanical behaviour of armchair (6, 6)
and zigzag (10, 0) single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) under axial loading are
investigated using the molecular dynamics (MD) simulation method. The results show that
Textile fibers are actually uniquely suited to transforming into electronics when combined with the seemingly ubiquitous carbon nanotube. Fibers made of cellulose, like cotton or polyester, are highly porous and can absorb large amounts of water and other polar solvents. When flexib...
