1. Examples of plant material which exhibit imbibition are dry seeds before germination. 2. Another example is that of imbibition in the Amott test. 3. They may also play a role during imbibition by controlling water uptake. 4. A yellow layer was added on the blue side through means of imbibition . 5. Water potential gradient between the absorbent and the liquid imbibed is essential for imbibition . 6. That is why proteinaceous pea seeds swell more on imbibition than starchy wheat seeds. 7. Relative saturation as well as mass of core samples starts to change during imbibition . 8. Imbibition of water increases the volume of the imbibant, which results in imbibitional pressure.9. It is also a factor affecting imbibition . 10. The contact angles at which spreading / imbibition occurs are between 0 and ? / 2.
