Cellulitis is a bacterial infection of the skin. Bacteria get into the skin through a cut, scrape, or other wound. Cellulitis can also affect the deeper layers of connective tissue beneath your skin and, in severe cases, spread to your lymph nodes.
Comparing the Major Synthetic Rope Materials. When deciding what rope best suits your need, it is often a matter of compromise. There are 5 major synthetic ropes in use for boat and marine applications. Polypropylene, Polyester, Nylon, UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) and Aramids (KevlarÂ®, TechnoraÂ®, VectranÂ®, etc). Each has outstanding virtues and each has faults.
Braided ropes are built by weaving fiber strands and come in 2 types: hollow and double braided. This kind of rope is very popular in marine applications but for survival, we would stay away from this beast. Braided ropes rot quickly, they stretch and they donât unbraid well. They are fairly strong when new, though.
