In the case of the SA-DMA systems, a similar encapsulated structure is observed when the number of SA-DMA pairs exceeds nine. In larger systems, starting from 13 pairs, multi-encapsulated DMA configurations can be found. This is a surprising trend, as one would assume that the bulky methyl groups would lead to highly unstable structures when coordinated with the surrounding bisulfate ions. However, we also see that the methyl groups are predominantly situated at the outside of the cluster structure, giving some degree of coreshell structure.
