Why is it better to wear a cotton shirt than a nylon one on a hot day?

Nylon is a synthetic material (means the fibers its made of are mainly a type of plastic), and cotton is a natural material. It's better to wear a cotton shirt on a hot day because it breathes (air can get in and out of the fabric), whereas the chemical makeup of nylon keeps the air from moving through the fabric. Basically, cotton will keep you cooler on a hot day than nylon will.

Nylon is an example of what?

Nylon is a polyamide. There are two: nylon 6.6, which was invented by DuPont, and nylon 6, which was invented by BASF. DuPont had a patent on nylon 6.6 and wouldn't license it; BASF wanted to play in the polyamides market so they created a similar material using a different process. Of the two, nylon 6.6 has a higher melt point and is a little harder than nylon 6. Nylon 6.6 is a polymer of Hexamethylene diamine and Adipic acid (Hexadioic acid) both these compounds contain 6 carbon atoms each. so it is Nylon 6.6. (Which is true for nylon 6.6. Nylon 6 is polymerized caprolactam, so that's called Nylon 6 because caprolactam also has 6 carbon atoms.)
