Sand itself is not waterproof, as it is highly porous and allows water to pass through it easily. However, when sand is compacted tightly or mixed with other materials like clay, it can create a barrier that water may have difficulty passing through.

What is the name of a kind of flooring material that is waterproof?

There are two methods to waterproof your floor. One is to apply a waterproof membrane prior to putting tile or carpet. Dal Tile offers a great product made by Laticrete. The second is to apply a waterproof flooring material. The current trend is urethane / epoxy quartz broadcast flooring systems. A substrate of urethane or epoxy based material is put on the floor. Then a sand mixture is broadcast over the urethane /epoxy and rolled with a paint roller to embed the sand into the urethane / epoxy. After that has dried, a urethane clear top coat is applied. The resulting texture on the floor will depend on the amount of sand used and how many topcoats of urethane. I wouldn't advise this for a do it yourselfer. It's messy messy. You should be able to get it professionally done for less than $10 a square foot.
