Researchers clarify properties of 'confined' water within single-walled carbon nanotube pores

Wednesday, June 22, 2011 - 15:00 in Physics & Chemistry

Water and ice may not be among the first things that come to mind when you think about single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), but a Japan-based research team hoping to get a clearer understanding of the phase behavior of confined water in the cylindrical pores of carbon nanotubes zeroed in on confined water's properties and made some surprising discoveries.
