Aggregation behavior of a larger polyamine-silica nanoparticle ensemble. a Snapshot of the initial configuration of 360 \({{\hbox {SiO}}_2}\) particles (gray; \(d\approx 10 - {20}\) Å) with 120 LCPA molecules (green) in a 20 nm cube of water. b Snapshot of the final stage of the simulation after 47 ns. The supercell used is highlighted with a white square surrounded by repeating neighboring supercells to visualize the periodic boundary conditions used in the MD simulations
