water-repellent

The Even Coat in Clay is made from waxed cotton, providing water-repellent and wind resistant properties without the use of synthetic materials.

Ground that once absorbed and filtered water becomes water-repellent.

Burn scars are at particular risk because intense heat can make soil water-repellent, while the loss of vegetation can mean there aren’t enough roots to hold the soil in place.

Clean gravel has been washed of debris that could form a water-repellent crust in the mulch and support weed growth.

Made primarily of lipids, the same water-repellent molecules that constitute household cooking fats like butter and olive oil, lipid nanoparticles have proven tremendously effective at delivering delicate molecular payloads.
