Plastic rope (poly)

[Minerva]

Is rope stronger when under water?

 

[Biggerhammer]

How would it be stronger under water? It's plastic so it's not going to be significantly weaker, I expect.

Where do people come up with these off the wall questions?

Is cheese warmer in a house or an apartment? 😕

Is it more fun to post on AT while at a desk or on the pot? These are important questions!

Depends on the water temperature?

Yeah if it's really really hot it may melt the rope....

Only if the plastic's melting point is below 100C.

Qualities of polypropylene:
1) floats.
2) deteriorates fairly quickly in sunlight.
3) does not stretch much, when compared to nylon of a similar gauge.

Or if it's really cold it could become brittle.

Water can be superheated under pressure!

Yes rope strength varies with how dry it is! -M
