Scientific paper

Our atomistic molecular dynamics simulations reveal the existence of bound
and free water molecules in the hydration layer of an aqueous micelle. The
bound water molecules can be either singly or doubly hydrogen bonded to the
polar head group on the surface of the micelle. The ratio of bound to free
water is found to be approximately equal to 9:1 at 300 K.
