Tessellated Inc, in partnership with the University of Notre Dame, has produced composite thin films with the highest reported tensile strengths. These films have been produced using widely available roll-to-roll manufacturing techniques that can be adapted to current manufacturing lines. Small amounts of thermally reduced graphene oxide particles can be added to a ultra high molecular weight polyethylene matrix to produce thin films with tensile strength above 4 GPa.
