New Hampshire Startup Makes World’s Largest Sheets of Carbon Nanotubes | Xconomy:

Now a New Hampshire company, Nanocomp Technologies of Concord, says it has overcome that limitation, producing sheets of carbon nanotubes that measure three feet by six feet and promising slabs 100 square feet in area as soon as this summer.

“From the get-go, we wanted to build something that would be manufacturable,” says Peter Antoinette, CEO and co-founder of Nanocomp. “We’re out to make value-added components out of that material.”

Увы, по прочности пока уступает алюминию той же толщины :(
Хотя направление правильное. Вот сделают в нём нанотрубки на порядок-два длиннее -- будет, о чём говорить.

Зато он должен быть существенно легче алюминия.
