Stretchable graphene is another ultimate material.

Graphene is an interesting material. There is a possibility that the new stretchable graphene, the rigid graphene, can form the ultimate bulletproof materials. In normal bullet-proof vests is the rigid and searchable material in layers. Those materials can bind the impact force of the incoming projectile. The stretchable graphene can improve the armor along with the normal graphene. When we think of the possibility of creating armor for satellites that stand small particle impacts. The stretchable and rigid layers are the most interesting ways to make that armor. 

If we think of the graphene's ability to act as armour we must realize that this material is very lightweight and it resists the impacts. The separated graphene layers can pull lots of energy out from impacting projectiles. And that makes the system hard to break. The graphene layers can stand on the fullerene nanotubes that separate them. And then that impacting projectile must release its energy into all of those layers.

There is also the possibility that the carbyne axles can make that kind of structure harder than we even can imagine. Those axles can pull energy out of the layer by binding it into the kinetic form. And that helps to deny the standing waves from that structure. If some carbons are removed from the graphene structure there is a possibility that the graphene turns into a carbyne net. The carbyne carbon rings are not valid to make the 2D layers, because all of their “hands” are reserved. But the carbyne or linear acetylenic carbon LAC, or linear carbon chain, LCC-based networks could be the strongest possible structures. 

But if some of the triple bonds can turn into double bonds. The free bond or "arm" can make contact with those carbyne layers. The carbyne can form rings and if that structure can transform in the network layers as graphene. A combination of graphyne and graphene can be the ultimate tool in materials that can be harder than diamonds. 

‘One of the things that determine the strength of the material is how fast it can remove energy from it. The other thing that can help to make the material stand is the ability to avoid the standing waves. The triple bond in the carbyne allows the bond to flex. Those two outer bonds can transport energy out from that molecule. So, if the system can make the quantum fullerene or graphene there is the free chemical bond that can act as the antenna that can transfer energy out from the structure. That free bond can be connected with hydrogen and that makes the structure transport energy out from it faster than otherwise. And that improves the materials' strength.
