Dry Water
Did you know that 'Dry Water' exists, where your hand doesn't get wet even when you put it in water? Dry Water is 95% real water, but it appears as a white powder. This is because the surface of tiny water droplets is coated with silica (sand component) nanoparticles, preventing the droplets from clumping together and causing them to bounce off each other. Although it doesn't leave any moisture when touched by hand, it boasts a unique chemical property of absorbing gases at an incredible speed, much faster than liquids. This Dry Water is gaining significant attention as a futuristic eco-friendly material that can efficiently capture carbon dioxide to combat climate change, or safely store and transport hazardous chemicals.

To explain the principle of water repellency more scientifically, it's the principle of preventing contact between polar solvents by coating the surface of water, a strong polar solvent, with a non-polar substance.
