Abstract
Surfaces containing hydroxyl groups are rendered water-repellent through exposure to hydridoaminosilanes of the general formula EQU H.sub.x Si(NRH).sub.y (NR.sub.2.sup.1).sub.3-y In particular, tris(dimethylamino)silane and its derivatives have been found to make substrates with hydroxyl-containing surfaces hydrophobic without adversely effecting the physical properties of the substrate being treated and without the necessity of and pre- or post-treatment steps (i.e. moisturizing, neutralizing, etc.).
