Adsorption of Lennard-Jones Fluids in Carbon Slit Pores of a Finite Length. A Computer Simulation Study by A. Wongkoblap, S. Junpirom, D.D. Do

“…Argon was used as a model for Lennard-Jones fluids, while the adsorbent was modelled as a finite carbon slit pore whose two walls were composed of three graphene layers with carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal pattern. The Lennard-Jones (LJ) 12–6 potential model was used to compute the interaction energy between two fluid particles, and also between a fluid particle and a carbon atom. …”
