oleophobic
Oleophobic refers to the property of a material or surface that resists or repels oils and greases. It is derived from the Latin word "oleum" meaning oil, and the Greek word "phobos" meaning fear. An oleophobic substance repels oil similar to how a hydrophobic substance repels water. Notably, this property is commonly used in the manufacturing of electronic devices and lenses to reduce fingerprints and smudges.
