My own comparative table 😋 :

Material	ρ Density (kg/m³)	R Strength (MPa)	R/ρ Specific Strength (MPa·m³/kg)
new Carb.	~200	400	2.03
Steel	7850	400	0.050
Aluminum	2700	300	0.11
Diamond	3500	...↓	... ↓
...compres.	3500	135000	38.6
... tensile	3500	90000	25.7

Cool,.they reinvented graphene. But instead of basic chemistry they wasted energy. Now crack the actual problem: making the stuff as a bigger sheet than a pencil tip
