Material that has openings through which liquid will pass in filtering. Also referred to as permeable or pervious.
Having or possessing small holes, permeable to liquids.
Having pores, or small holes.
in a strict sense, full of holes and permeable to fluids. One of the three primary attributes of SpongeBob, and the "P" in YAP. However, from The Church's perspective, the issue is more one of an ability to be penetrated, being open to ideas and concepts. Rigidity and dogmatism are the enemies of Porousness. At what point is SpongeBob at his least Porous? When he's all dried up
able to absorb fluids; "the partly porous walls of our digestive system"; "compacting the soil to make it less porous"
full of pores or vessels or holes
allowing passage in and out; "our unfenced and largely unpoliced border inevitably has been very porous"
allowing passage in and out; able to absorb fluids
containing or being full of tiny holes.
Rock or soil that admits the passage of gas or liquid through small spaces. A sponge is very porous.
1) having or full of pores; 2) allowing the passage of gas or liquid through pores or interstices.
Materials ability to absorb water having many small openings.
It is a term used for those minerals which contain rounded, tiny holes throughout. Many of them can be dyed.
containing pores which are interconnected.
Porous surfaces contain small pores or holes and will readily absorb gases or liquids.
Rock which allows water to pass through its pores
A surface that was many tiny openings. A porous surface will require more finish or sealer to fill and smooth out these openings.
Porous stones have tiny holes in them. These holes allow water, oils, and other substances to penetratethe stone, frequently changing their appearance over time. Many stones are porous, including turquoise.
having pores, or tiny openings, as in rock
full of tiny holes that water or air can penetrate
full of small holes (pores); able to be filled (permeated) by water, air, or other materials.
Having pores as in paper, corrugated, wood, skin and some textiles.
having small pores or holes through which materials such as water can pass
A surface that contains small pores or holes and will readily absorb gases or liquids.
This describes material that is not dense or has small voids or holes that absorb topcoats of finishing material.
When something has little tiny holes in it so that water or air can go through it.
full of pores, letting through air, leaky
Geologically, this term describes rock that permits movement of fluids through small, often microscopic openings, much as water moving through a sponge. Porous rocks may contain gas, oil, or water.
Full of tiny openings usually only seen under a microscope.
Full of pores through which water, light, etc. may pass.
Material with pores through which fluid, air or light can pass.
