omnibus Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 http://news.mit.edu/2017/3-d-graphene-strongest-lightest-materials-0106 Quote Researchers design one of the strongest, lightest materials known Porous, 3-D forms of graphene developed at MIT can be 10 times as strong as steel but much lighter. It's porous though so not sure if it would actually make a great speaker cone but light and strong as this certainly would be fun to experiment with.

Skullz Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 The cost of manufacturing is what is preventing it from being a mass market item. This is one of those things that have to have new processes of manufacturing invented to reduce costs which can take years and decades. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Way cool IMO this is one of those technologies that's going to revolutionize everything when it becomes mainstream. Displays, composites, semiconductors.
