synonym: partially draining

Adjective describing the flow behaviour of a macromolecule in solution or a dispersed entity when, due to hydrodynamic interaction, the solvent within the domain of the macromolecule or a dispersed entity becomes progressively more immobilised with respect to the macromolecule or a dispersed entity in the direction from its outer fringes inward.
Note: Free-draining and impermeable behaviour are two extremes of the concept of partial free-draining behaviour.
