Molecular aggregates

Molecular aggregates are clusters formed when individual molecules stick together through physical or chemical interactions, such as hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces, or covalent bonds. These assemblies can influence the material's properties, like color, conductivity, or stability, and occur naturally or in engineered systems. Examples include micelles in detergents, protein complexes in biology, or nanomaterials. Understanding these aggregates helps scientists design better drugs, materials, and chemical processes by controlling how molecules assemble and behave collectively.
