(28) As shown from the combination of the results of Table I and Table II, the invention requires a combination of Formula (I) and Formula (II) with no addition of perfluorinated compounds to achieve both hydrophobicity and oleophobicity. This is clearly show in Example #34 where only a silane was employed with no siloxane. As also clearly demonstrated in the tables, R.sub.1 in Formula (I) needs to be a sufficient number of carbons (at least 12) for the beneficial impact to be realized as illustrated in Examples #31-#33. The value of some catalysts versus others is illustrated in #6 where oil-repellency was achieved on bricks only, but not on pavers.

(29) The mixtures are also excellent water repellents as shown in the following example wherein the formulation form Example #2 was coated on bricks and concrete paver using different coverage rates. The water repellency was measured using the Rilem method, the amount of water absorbed into the substrates at a given time is reported in ml (using horizontal test tubes), For comparison the results for an untreated reference substrate are reported as well. Rilem Test Method—Test No. II.4 Horizontal Application (Réunion Internationale des Laboratoires et Experts des Matériaux, systèmes de construction et ouvrages). The results are tabulated in Table III.

(31) As illustrated in the table, to the untreated surface, the treatment on the brick and concrete paver caused significant less water to be absorbed. The formulation was stable when in a closed container for 8 weeks at 50′C.

(32) The formulation enhances the surface leading to a darker, more homogenous wet like look of stones and concrete. This mixtures are as enhancing the color as shown in the following example wherein the formulation from Ex. #2 was coated on various substrates and the L,a,b values were measured. The following Table IV shows how the treatment significantly reduces the L values (average of 3 measurements), the reduction in “L” values being at least equal to or greater than 5 “L” units, more preferably at least equal to or greater than 10 “L” units. The application of the composition of Formulas (I) and (II) results in, a surface with the desirable “wet” look, a visual appearance which is maintained even after drying of the composition.

(34) The darkening (enhancement) of the substrate is permanent. Unlike water or a solvent which will evaporate or non-reactive oils that wash out or migrate deeper into a substrate, the treatment will chemically react ideally forming covalent bonds to the substrate. The visibility of the color change is dependent, on the amount applied and colour/type of substrate. Concrete pavers and terracotta type bricks treated (with 250 g/m.sup.2) more than a year ago, and stored inside and outside on a roof, still show the color enhancement.

(35) The formulations can be provided in form of an emulsion:

(36) Example 38: To 46 g of demineralised water, 2 g of Genapol 0X80 (Clariant) and 2 g of Tergitol TMN-6 (Dow Chemical) are added and mixed with an Ultraturrax mixer, 10 g of a silanol terminated PDMS (65 cSt) and 40 g of hexadecyltrimethoxysilane were premixed in a beaker and slowly added (by means of a pipette) to the surfactant solution while continuing mixing with the Ultraturrax mixer at 24000 rpm. A white emulsion is formed. The emulsion was applied to a concrete paver and allowed to cure for 4 weeks. The paver shows oil repellence when tested with olive oil.

(37) The formulation can also be provided in the form of a two-component system. This is useful when fillers are used which tend to settle from the mixture, shelf life of a mixture is short or fast cure is desired.

(38) Example 39: Component A: 60 parts of hexadecyltrimethoxysilane mixed with 0.5 parts of UL 28; Component B: 29.5 g of a silanol terminated PDMS (65 cSt) and 10 g calcium carbonate powder (1 micron mean particle size). Component A and B are mixed within one (1) hour of preparation and applied to a surface of a paver and terracotta type brick (application rate for both 250 g/m.sup.2). The surfaces show oil repellence after 24 h when tested with olive oil.

(39) Example 40: The mixture being as described in Table 1 Example #2 and applied to the following materials; polished Carrara marble, flamed finish green granite, polished brown marble (café Armani), honed finish tumbled travertine, honed finish Jerusalem limestone, Brown honed Sydney sandstone, Himalayan teak honed sandstone, Chinese grey slate, Encaustic tile (Made in Vietnam), Brighton Masonry Charcoal concrete paver, photocopy paper (Reflex Ultra White A4 80 gsm), unsanded maple hardwood, inside of leather belt (Trent Nathan New Zealand) allowed to cure for at least 1 week at ambient temperature (23° C. and ˜60% RH). Oil repellence was tested by applying 3 drops of olive oil on the substrates. If the oil drops were still present after 1 hour the formulation was rated as oil repellent. If 1 or more drops were absorbed into the substrate the formulation was rated as non-oil repellent.

(41) Example #37 in Table II illustrates a commercially available product for comparative purposes. The product is available from Chemours. The test shows that a product containing perfluorated carbon atoms repels olive oil in the test just as the compositions falling under this invention and which are free of perfluorinated carbon atoms.

(42) The diversity of the composition for the “R” groups for the silane and siloxane compounds is quite broad, in which an amine side group is illustrated in Ex. #11; an ethoxy end group is illustrated in Ex. #24(a)-(d) and #29; hydrogen is illustrated as an end group in Ex. #25(a)-(d); a phenyl group is illustrated in Ex. #26(a)-(d); and a hydrogen side group in Ex. #28.

(43) The diversity of applicable catalysts is equally broad, with some non-limiting examples including titanates (see Exs. #17 & 18); zirconates (see Ex. #19); carboxylic acids (see Ex. #20); amines (see Exs. #21 & 22): aminosilane (see Ex #6); strong base (see Ex. #23 for KOH); and strong acids (see Ex. #30 for DBSA).

(44) The diversity of substrates that can be treated is shown in Example #40.
