Deterioration Risks in Synthetic Ropes From Wear and Fatigue
Paul Johnson of Berkley & Co notes two deterioration paths for synthetic ropes: mechanical wear and molecular fatigue. Repeated abrasion causes external wear such as broken filaments and fuzz, while internal wear arises from constant loading, with filaments rubbing and weakening much like a stretched rubber band. Molecular fatigue, accelerated by sunlight and ozone, further robs rope strength.
