On the Water-Carbon Interaction for Use in Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Graphite and Carbon NanotubesPage 1349.A conversion error has been detected in the analysis of the line tension (Figure 4); the units of the abscissa axis should be Å -1 .The subsequent analysis of the line tension on page 1349 is therefore in error by a factor of 10.Thus, the magnitude of the line tension can be estimated from the slopes of the fits in Figure 1, compare eq 3, which are -0.94(case 14), -3.33 (case 1), and -3.72 Å (case 10), respectively.For a surface tension of water of γ LV ) 72 mN/m, the line tension τ is found to be 0.7 × 10 -11 (case 14), 2.4 × 10 -11 (case 1), and 2.7 × 10 -11 J/m (case 10).This error has no implication for the remaining analysis and conclusions presented in the paper.A corrected version of Figure 4 is given below.
