Synthetic materials can hold up in many environments, from below freezing to very warm temperatures, and from greasy environments to very damp atmospheres.

"Synthetic papers are dimensionally stable when exposed to moisture and humidity, can withstand temperatures ranging from -60° F to over 240° F, and are resistant to cracking, shrinking, or distortion in size and color. They can withstand repeated flexing and bending without cracking or breaking," Giblin said.
