Abstract
A treating process is provided for increasing the stability and resistance to degradation of naturally or artificially consolidated, permeable masses such as earthen formations or subterranean formations having exposed siliceous surfaces which are contacted by aqueous media. The treatment is effected by contacting the porous mass with a particular type of organosilicon compound which has a hydrophobic functional group and a silica bonding functional group to form a hydrophobic film on the exposed surfaces.
