13. We determine the water or graphite parameters by demanding that the CG water form a droplet on the CG graphite surface with a contact angle of θ=86°, using the methodology of Werder (see Fig. 1 of Werder; we use a droplet of 22000 CG water particles, which corresponds to 66000 real water molecules).
