The data of this table is from best cases, and has been established for giving a rough figure. Note: Multiwalled carbon nanotubes have the highest tensile strength of any material yet measured, with labs producing them at a tensile strength of 63 GPa, [ 36 ] still well below their theoretical limit of 300 GPa.
