36. Although substrates that have only an olefin moiety are adsorbed to the surface of silica in water by hydrophobic repulsion, the substrates with functional groups such as a hydroxy group have an ability to interact with the surface (terminal) of silica (HO-Si), if they are not highly soluble in water.
