It looks like it might have a myriad of uses, just like graphene. A whole range of materials are coming on line that have potential in numerous areas. All our technologies are really starting to feed on each other, leading to an explosion of progress and material science is no exception. Progress is advancing in so many areas, it's literally a wonder. Everything is going to advance at the pace of the "Great Acceleration".
