Nonhygroscopically

Definition: Non-hygroscopic, also known as a hydrophilic substance, is a type of material that does not easily absorb water. It has a high surface area and low density, which means it can hold large amounts of water without getting saturated or wet. Examples of non-hygroscopic materials include plastics, glass, paper, and metals. Non-hydrophilic substances are typically found in the environment as a result of natural processes such as precipitation, evaporation, and condensation.

Hygroscopically

Definition: Hygroscopic refers to a substance that has a high degree of attraction towards water. This property is often associated with materials like cornstarch, which can absorb moisture and swell when wetted by water. In other words, it's like a material that won't let water out of its pores, even if you were to rub or scratch it. The term "hygroscopic" comes from the Greek word "hyllo," meaning "water."
