The result they don't mix. ... Likewise, molecules which have lots of charges on them are termed hydrophillic, or "water loving." They interact well with the charges on water molecules. Unlike the water molecule, oil is made up of long chains of carbon atoms (usually 8 Carbon atoms) which do not carry an electric charge.

Under normal conditions, oil and water don't mix. But "near-critical" water -- very hot but still liquid water at temperatures of 250 to ... "What all this means is that molecules that would normally not be soluble in the same solvent become soluble together in near-critical water and can be processed together," he added.
