Abstract
Interactions between hydrophobic materials and aqueous media was studied using the analysis of specific surface resistance. Methods for measuring surface resistance are developed for both samples exposed in vapors and those in direct contact with liquid. As a result of the measurements performed, it is confirmed that water molecules penetrate the matrix of the material under prolonged contact with hydrophobic and superhydrophobic materials with aqueous media. The processes of formation on the surface of hydrophobic and superhydrophobic materials of the wetting/adsorption films are observed and the method of estimation their thickness is suggested.
