It’s the material that is often used to make vests or other gear to protect against projectile impacts.

Now, researchers have developed what they say is an ultra-tough material that is strong against impacts but also super-insulating.

The material could be used for a variety of applications, from firefighting and military to space exploration.

The researchers sought to combine the properties of materials with resistance to impacts, like Kevlar, with the properties of materials that have strong thermal resistance.

The team developed nanofibers that are long and strong, but porous in order to allow for heat dissipation and mitigate diffusion.
