Network artificial chemistry (NAC) is a new method of artificial chemistry that represents spatial structure and molecular interactions purely with a network. Using a method of statistical mechanics, the paper establishes new passive rewiring rules that incorporate bonding energy, system temperature, node size, physical distance, and so on, enabling more realistic emulation of molecular movement/reactions in a solvent. The NAC graph is experimentally rewired using the proposed rewiring rules, and it is demonstrated that the natural partitioning of hydrophilic clusters is successfully carried out.
