Carbon Nanotubes III: Adsorption and Transport

Thursday, November 12, 2009: 3:15 PM
Ryman C (Gaylord Opryland Hotel)

Description:
We invite papers dealing with experimental or theoretical or simulational studies of gases or liquids interacting with carbon nanotubes and related nanostructures. Topics of interest include adsorption isotherms, characterization of the porous structure of the nanotubes, phase transitions, confinement and dimensionality effects, heats of adsorption, heat capacity, adsorption related to sensors, transport of gases or liquids through nanotubes, interaction of biological molecules with nanotubes, and related issues.
