nonfloatable
Will sink down
Not able to float; incapable of staying on the surface of water or other liquid.
The term appears in technical contexts describing materials or objects that sink rather than bob: nonfloatable debris settles on the seafloor.
In financial contexts, nonfloatable may describe currency or rates that cannot fluctuate freely with market conditions.
