A groundbreaking 2D polymer could give a new meaning to body armor and ballistic fabrics with its unbeatable strength and flexibility.

Imagine armor as light as fabric yet stronger than steel, built from materials that link together like molecular chainmail.

Resembling the interlocking links in chainmail, novel nanoscale material is incredibly strong and flexible. The interlocked material contains 100 trillion mechanical bonds per 1 square centimeter -- ...
