Which Nanomaterials Exhibit High Tensile Strength?
Several nanomaterials are known for their high tensile strength. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are a prime example. These cylindrical structures exhibit tensile strengths up to 100 times greater than steel while being much lighter. Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a two-dimensional lattice, also boasts exceptional tensile strength, along with flexibility and electrical conductivity. Other materials such as nanocellulose and nanocomposites also display noteworthy tensile properties.
