Struggling to understand stretch and strength in fishing line

[QUOTE="Chestermiller, post: 6264490, member: 345636"] In my judgment, this has to do with the viscoelastic properties of the two polymers, nylon 6, 66, and fluorocarbon (presumably teflon). I expect that the nylon polymers exhibit a greater component of viscous behavior than the flouro polymer. The viscous behavior kicks in at high deformation rates, and helps to partially supporting the tensile stress in the filament. You can get an idea of these features by measuring the small amplitude oscillatory response of the two polymers, and comparing their so-called stress relaxation spectra. [/QUOTE]
