s31523 writes "Military and law enforcement agencies are constantly seeking better protection in the line of fire, but current armour is heavy and bulky. The University of Cambridge has developed a new type of carbon fibre made up of nanotubes that is some cases exceed the performance of Kevlar. The new material has other potential uses as well, from bomb disposal bins to flexible solar panels."
