Solvent features of cluster single-wall C, BC2N and BN nanotubes, cones and horns
Graphical abstractDisplay Omitted Highlights? It is discussed single-wall carbon, BC2N and BN nanocones in organic solvents in cluster form. ? Theory is developed based on a cluster bundlet model describing distribution function by size. ? There is explanation in which (BC2N/BN-)SWNC free energy is combined from two components. ? Bundlet model enables describing the distribution function of (BC2N/BN-)SWNC clusters by size. ? From purely geometrical differences, bundlet and droplet models predict different behaviours. It is discussed the existence of single-wall carbon nanocones (SWNCs), especially nanohorns (SWNHs), and BC2N/boron nitride (BN) analogues in organic solvents in cluster form; …
