I am active in plastics business and what is desperatly needed is not a strong polymer (mechanical wise) needed is a stron polymer chemichally seen. This stuff can be solved in water, so not solid, what about acids? Hahahah

that's why a material's strength is measured in PSI or MPa, pounds per square inch or mega Pascal (metric version of pressure or psi).

a plastic that is as strong as steel is amazing and only will be widespread if it can be easily manufactured. its uses will depend heavily on other properties as well, such as density, toughness, stiffness, conductivity, thermal expansion, etc. so don't expect it to replace steel anytime soon.

but i can see it being a great new material for very specialized applications (military, in particular).]]>Oct 5th 2007 5:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/05/researchers-tout-super-strong-transparent-plastic/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/05/researchers-tout-super-strong-transparent-plastic/Get outdoors!
