Effect of vegetation and its succession on water repellency in sandy soils
Ecohydrology, 2018Vegetation and its succession can change the parameters of soil water repellency (SWR) due to the change in amount and composition of soil organic matter.

Water-repellency is a property of some materials, either natural or synthetic, which makes water hardly stick to them: drops roll very easily off these solids, and bounce back upon impacting them. Here we discuss recent advances in this field, which has been particularly lively in recent years. We first examine the physical causes for this effect. Then

Water repellent soils exhibit hydrophobic properties when dry, resisting or retarding water infiltration into the soil matrix (Brandt, 1969a). Infiltration rates may be reduced by an order of magnitude, even in soils which visually appear to wet “normally” (Wallis et al., 1991).

Capillary forces in unsaturated soils depend on the surface tension of water, the dimensions of soil pores and on the contact angle of the interfaces of the solid phase of soil (soil matrix) and liquid water. The contact angle (angle of wetting) is assumed to be zero, but in real soils is higher, depending on the properties of the thin surface layer ...

Water repellency in Japanese coniferous forest soils as affected by drying temperature and moisture
Biologia, 2018Soil water repellency occurs where the attraction between solid and liquid phases is weak. The objective of this study was to examine the occurrence and behavior of water repellency in Japanese coniferous forest soils as affected by drying temperature ...

Eighteen years ago we called attention to the need of developing water resistant materials as bacterial barriers in the operating room setting1. Possibly as a result of that report, a new industry came into being which now supplies surgical draping to a large number of hospitals and operating units.

WATER REPELLENTS ARE TRANSPARENT COATINGS formulated for the purpose of protecting porous substrates by preventing the penetration of liquid water. Unlike waterproofing materials and sealers, water repellents allow the passage of water vapor and generally are not designed to prevent the intrusion of liquid water under hydrostatic pressure.

Water Repellent Periodic Mesoporous Organosilicas
ACS Nano, 2011This paper demonstrates for the first time thermally induced gradual hydrophobization, monitored quantitatively by ellipsometric porosimetry, of four prototypical periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMOs) that are tailored through materials chemistry for use as low-dielectric-constant (low k) materials in microprocessors.
