Hydrophobic Hydration of a Single Polymer

Hydrophobic interactions guide important molecular self-assembly processes such as protein folding. On the macroscale, hydrophobic interactions consist of the aggregation of "oil-like" objects in water by minimizing the interfacial energy. However, the hydration mechanism of small hydropho...
