This model is particularly useful for characterizing carbon single-wall nanotubes. The reported pore
size range is from 3.5 to 1000 Å.

Ar - Argon Cylinder, multi-wall nanotube by NLDFT
Model isotherms were calculated using the prescriptions of Tarazona for density dependent weighting
functions and cylindrical pore geometry. The pore wall potential is described by the Lennard-Jones
potential of interaction between a gas molecule and multiple concentric graphitic surfaces of infinitely
long cylinders.
This model is particularly useful for characterizing carbon multi-wall nanotubes. The reported pore
size range is from 3.5 to 1000 Å.
Ar - Zeolites H-Form by NLDFT
Model isotherms were calculated using the prescriptions of Tarazona for density dependent weighting
functions and cylindrical pore geometry. The pore wall potential is described by the Lennard-Jones
potential of interaction between a gas molecule and the oxide surface of an infinitely long cylinder.
This model is particularly useful for characterizing oxides and H
