A First-Principles Study on Interaction between Carbon Nanotubes (10,10) and Gallates Derivatives as Vehicles for Drug Delivery
First principles calculations were carried out for investigation the novel 7-hydroxycoumarinyl gallates derivatives in gas and liquid phases using density functional theory (DFT) method. Computational chemistry simulations were carried out to compare calculated quantum chemical parameters for gallates derivatives. All calculations were performed using DMol3 code which is based on DFT. The Doubl...
متن کاملNonlinear Vibration Analysis of Embedded Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes in Thermal Environment
In this article, based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the large-amplitude vibration of multiwalled carbon nanotubes embedded in an elastic medium is investigated. The method of incremental harmonic balance is implemented to solve the set of governing nonlinear equations coupled via the van der Waals (vdW) interlayer force. The influences of number of tube walls, the elastic medium, nanotub...

متن کاملOne Pot Chemically Attachment of Amino Groups on Multi walled Carbon Nanotubes Surfaces
Functionalization of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with NH2 groups under a one pot reaction is studied. During the first step of the reaction, Cl and CHCl2 groups were attached to the surfaces of MWCNTs through an electrophilic addition reaction. In the second step of process, Cl atoms were replaced with NH2 and amino groups (ethylene diamine and but...
متن کاملTheoretical insights into the encapsulation of anticancer Oxaliplatin drug into single walled carbon nanotubes
The present work was an attempt to evaluate the potentialities of using SWCNTs as nanovectors for drug delivery of anticancer drug Oxaliplatin. First-principles van der Waals density functional (vdW-DF) calculations are used to investigate the incorporation of oxaliplatin inside the typical semiconducting and metallic single wall carbon nanotubes with various diameters (SWCNTs). Adsorption ener...
