The new substance is the result of a feat thought to be impossible: polymerizing a material in two dimensions. Using a novel polymerization process, MIT chemical engineers have created a new material that is stronger than steel and as light as plastic, and can be easily manufactured in large quan

The challenge with any new material is turning it from research into production and manufacturing at scale (and as we learn from plastics - understanding its long term environmental impact)- however the insights from a new polymerization process developed at MIT promises some interesting developments if these challenges can be overcome.
