The aim of this article is to report the creation of artificial, robust, and very hydrophobic materials with core–shell polyurethane–polydimethylsiloxane or polyurethane–poly( n ‐butyl acrylate) polymer microparticles. These latexes were prepared by polyaddition in cyclohexane with commercial or synthetic steric stabilizers. An easy one‐step method based on the filtration of the colloidal particles was developed to obtain water‐repellent fibrous materials such as paper or textiles that maintain stable properties even after several washing/drying cycles. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
