What material has THE highest tensile strength bar none?

Posted on November 29, 2009 by admin

Is it stainless steel,
carbon composite,
titanium,
or what?

A table of materials measured in PSI please?

Spider web silk.

    657000 psi

    311000 psi

    and last but not least,
    8208000 psi

    synthetics are the strongest – otherwise use google to find your table.

    Since strength has, a relationship to hardness, the strongest may well be diamond (in certain directions) but it is not typically used in tensile applications, or else carbon nano-tubes, which are not yet made in lengths that allow much practical use. For practical purposes, Kevlar® or similar synthetic fibers are probably the strongest.
