hydrophobic
نافرة من الماء
definition
adjective
The polyurethane foam does not hold moisture and is hydrophobic (water repelling).
tending to repel or fail to mix with water.
of or suffering from hydrophobia.
translation of 'hydrophobic'
adjective
مسعور
example
The negative values refer to inverse relationships between 'hydrophobic' and hydrophilic residues.
Emulsions are typically made up of a hydrophilic, aqueous portion and a 'hydrophobic' , oil portion.
This part of the molecule is called 'hydrophobic' , meaning water-hating.
The polyurethane foam does not hold moisture and is 'hydrophobic' (water repelling).
With this kind of dual nature, the hydrophilic part will face the water and the 'hydrophobic' part will exclude water.
This is a significant drawback because the dependency of intermembrane transfer on lipid 'hydrophobicity' is a very useful criterion when assessing the mechanism of transfer.
The amount of dimer that exists in organic solvents often increases with increasing solvent 'hydrophobicity' (decreasing dielectric).
The role of these structures in determining spore 'hydrophobicity' , adhesion, dispersal, and resistance to environment stresses is poorly understood.
These results were similar to previously reported values for polystyrene and showed high 'hydrophobicity' .
The researchers found that beta-peptides showed similar trends, with decreases in 'hydrophobicity' leading to greater selectivity for bacterial cells.
