🔴Spider Silk has long held the record for being the strongest biomaterial on Earth -- but that just changed. Scientists at KTH Royal Institute Of Technology (Daniel Soderberg) used wooden nanofiberes to create a new biomaterial that is even stronger than spider silk. Researchers "densified" wood to turn an already strud material into a superwood that is as strong as a steel. This material is made from cellulose nanofibres that are sourced from wood and plant body having tensile stiffness of 86 gigapascals (GPa) and a tensile strength of 1.57 GPa. This biodegradable material is stronger than steel and can stretch upto 20 times its unaltered size without losing its strength.
