Abstract
Explicit molecular dynamics simulations were applied to a pair of amorphous silica nanoparticles in aqueous solution (3.2 nm in diameter) and four different background electrolyte concentrations. Radial distribution functions and derived quantities were used to probe the surface environment of the nanoparticles where further evidence of water layering was found. In addition a 'patchy' double layer of adsorbed sodium counterions was directly observed
