With superb strength and stiffness and a relatively low weight, carbon fibers are the type of material engineers would love to use for all kinds of things, not just top-end bicycles and cars, and aircraft. While the high cost of production has proven a key limitation in its widespread adoption, one team of scientists has found that adding a small amount of graphene to the production mix could be the key to not only making carbon fiber more affordable, but possibly stronger and stiffer at the same time.
