    Did you mean Hydrophobicity?
    GlossaryHydrophobicity

    property of repelling water

    Hydrophobicity refers to the property of a molecule or surface that repels water. In simpler terms, it means that the substance does not mix with or absorb water, much like how oil behaves when it is in contact with water. This characteristic is crucial in various biological processes, such as the formation of cell membranes, where hydrophobic lipid tails face inward, away from water, creating a barrier that protects the cell.
