##Water test 1: water resistant (spraying)

I sprayed water onto the samples

| Sample | with drying off | without drying off| |-----|------------|---------|--------------|--------| | Alginate foil | | | | Alginate composite | | | | Agar foil | | | | Madder copper dye | | | | Kombucha paper | | | | Biosilicone | | | | Biofoam | | | | Bioresin | | | | Starch rubber | | | | Agar composite | | | | Mango leather | | | | Biolinoleum | | | | Other samples here!!!!

##Water test 2: submerged

I submerged the samples in water at room temperature.

Sample 30 mins 1 hour 2 hours 4 hours
