polywatern.

Brit.

/ˈpɒlɪˌwɔːtə/, U.S.

/ˈpɑliˌwɔdər/,

/ˈpɑliˌwɑdər/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: poly- comb. form, water n.

Etymology: < poly- comb. form + water n.

Chemistry. Now historical.

A supposed polymeric form of water having properties markedly different from those of ordinary water and reputedly discovered in fine capillary tubes. Also called anomalous water, orthowater.The unusual properties of the water have been shown to result from ionic contaminants.
