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.
The Tensile Strength is the load at which a new rope, tested under laboratory conditions, can be expected to break. Rope strength is the approximate average for new rope tested under ASTM test method D-6268. To estimate the minimum tensile strength of a new rope, reduce the approximate average by 20%.
