Using a novel polymerization process, MIT chemical engineers have created a new two-dimensional polymer that self-assembles into sheets, unlike all other polymers which form one-dimensional chains. Until now, scientists had believed it was impossible to induce polymers to form 2D sheets. The new material is stronger than steel and as...

The new substance is the result of a feat thought to be impossible: polymerizing a material in two dimensions

MIT chemical engineers have created a new material that is stronger than steel, as light as plastic, and can be easily manufactured in large quantities.

The substance created by Massachussets Institute of Technology-led experts achieves something long thought impossible - polymerisation in two dimensions.
