🔍 Key Concepts

• Material properties of Kevlar (aramid fibers) and how they react to the environment • Differences between mechanical damage (folding/handling) and chemical or UV damage • Manufacturer care recommendations for high‑tech racing sails

💭 Think About

• Think about which single factor will cause the fastest and most severe long‑term weakening of Kevlar fibers when the sail is simply being stored or left unused. • Consider which of these options is most likely to be continuously present in normal storage conditions and is specifically warned about in sail‑care guides. • Ask yourself: which of these is known to cause invisible but permanent loss of strength in synthetic fibers like Kevlar, even without any visible tears or stains?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is associated with UV (ultraviolet) exposure and long‑term fiber degradation. • Distinguish between occasional handling damage (like folding) and environmental exposure that acts on the sail whenever it is left out. • Recall that some cleaners are harmful, but ask whether they are typically the primary cause of damage when sails are simply "not in use."
