Polymer is a plastic coating that is currently being developed making dinnerware and bathroom mirrors clean with water alone. Something favorable for environmentalists who worry about the effects that soap has on our water system as it washes down the drain. How it works? It is a coating that keeps the grease from penetrating the material underneath. Soap "degreases"- it allows oil on soiled surfaces to disperse into water as an emulsion causing dishwater to cloud up. With polymer, the oil is displaced without soap. Similar coatings may be used on glasses, car windshields and bathroom mirrors to resist fogging and making it easier to clean.
