The Tersoff potential was employed to accurately model the atomic and mechanical behavior of the polymer‑carbon matrix, considering the presence of these nanovoids. The simulation results indicate that the potential energy and total energy stabilized at −132,279.23 eV and − 131,522.4 eV, respectively, confirming the physical stability of simulated samples. On the other hand, the findings reveal that for a nanovoid radius of 5 Å, the ultimate strength and Young's modulus were 36.41 GPa and 424.93 GPa, respectively. As the radius of nanovoids increased from 5 Å to 15 Å, both ultimate strength and Young's modulus exhibited a decreasing trend, with values dropping from 36.41 GPa and 424.93 GPa to 31.18 GPa and 364.39 GPa, respectively. Moreover, larger nanovoids contributed to increased flexibility and a higher critical strain in the polymer‑carbon matrix.
