Hygroscopic substances are used to absorb humidity.
Potassium hydroxide is hygroscopic and deliquescent.
A hygroscopic powder is a substance that has the ability to absorb moisture from the air. This property can cause the powder to clump together or become sticky. Hygroscopic powders are often used in adsorption processes to remove moisture from the environment.
A hygroscopic substance absorbs moisture from the air. If an unknown being is being weighed before and after exposure to air, any increase in weight may suggest it is hygroscopic and has absorbed moisture from the air. Additional testing would be needed to confirm this hypothesis.
No, oil is not hygroscopic. Oil does not have a tendency to absorb or attract water molecules from its surroundings like hygroscopic substances do.
Non-Hygroscopic
In crystalline form it's non-hygroscopic, or has only slight hygroscopicity. In powder form it is, yes.
Neither toluene nor hexane are hygroscopic, as they do not readily absorb or attract water from the atmosphere. They are both non-polar solvents and typically do not form strong interactions with water molecules.
The hair of the tail of horse is hygroscopic material.
Polyol Ester is also hygroscopic

As far as I know, the PVC is not hygroscopic, it doesn't absorb the moisture. There are several types of PVC though, so there could be some hygroscopic PVC resin, but I haven't encountered it yet. Normally it is dried by hot air driers, which are not suitable for hygroscopic materials, therefore I assume PVC is not hygroscopic...

Hygroscopic means that hair has a tendency to absorb and retain moisture from the surrounding environment. This property can make hair more prone to frizz in humid conditions and dryness in dry conditions.
No.
Acetone is not known as hygroscopic.
