Nanocomp Technologies Inc. has found a way to mass-produce long (cm-sized) carbon nanotube fibers and thread them into yarns and felts for various purposes. These nanotube fibers are dozens of times stronger than steel, weigh less than plastic, and can conduct electricity. Nanocomp is one of a few companies currently working to commercialize nanotube fabrics. Their main marketing points are reduced power consumption and increased strength in speciality products. Proposed applications include body armor, land, air, and sea vehicles, consumer electronics, and sporting goods.
