Good idea but I am busy with radon and CO2 data logger at the moment (and my wife reminds me we are away for almost all of May) so I won't be doing anything until sometime in June at the earliest.Pitlamp said:It would be better to do a simple "controlled" strength test experiment with clean new nylon rope and oil contaminated new nylon rope. The difference in break strengths would give useful information about the effect of the particular contaminant. Replication of results would also then give more confidence in the findings.
I note the IRATA link did not work for me, try https://irata.org/downloads/2055 .
