Aggregation behavior of a polyamine-silica nanoparticle ensemble. a Snapshot of the initial configuration of 24 \({{\hbox {SiO}}_2}\) nanoparticles (gray; \(d\approx 10{-}{20}\) Å) with 16 LCPA molecules (green) in a 8 nm cube of water. b Snapshot of the final stage of the system after 63 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
