Title The chemistry of rope
Contributors
Abstract Cavers know that they should look after their ropes to extend life, literally as well as metaphorically. We wash them and dry them and nurture them ... but to what avail? Dr Steve King discusses the chemical structure of rope and how it is affected by chemicals, water and actions that we cavers submit them to.
