Many long-lasting garments include this material (5)
I believe the answer is:
nylon
'this material' is the definition.
(nylon is a kind of material)
'many long-lasting garments include' is the wordplay.
'NYLON' is hidden within the letters.
But, I'm not sure how the hidden word is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for nylon that I've seen before include "Artificial fabric" , "Plastic used for stockings" , "Synthetic fabric invented in 1938" , "Artificial fibre" , "Artificial material" .)
