Involve, entangle, implicate imply getting a person connected or bound up with something from which it is difficult to extricate himself or herself. To involve is to bring more or less deeply into something, especially of a complicated, embarrassing, or troublesome nature: to involve someone in debt.
GORE-TEX is an amazing breathable, waterproof textile found in high-performance clothes such as walking/hiking boots and mountain coats. Unlike ordinary synthetic textiles like nylon, GORE-TEX stops rain from getting in but lets perspiration out.
Now the Teflon in GORE-TEX isn't quite waterproof because it has tiny holes (or pores) in it. That's why it's called microporous Teflon. The pores are less than one micrometer (one millionth of a meter) in diameterâless than one fiftieth the size of a human hair.
