You know vibranium, right? Mythical marvel material?

I found it.

You probably are thinking that I am about to tell you about Graphene, Borophene, or some material that is nearly impossible to make.

But you can buy most of the materials for this off of Amazon.

But first, meet Soberthane, nitinol, and Carbon Nanotubes (the only one that you can’t buy on Amazon).

Soberthane turns kinetic energy and vibrations into heat, which combined with nitinol will self heal from kinetic energy. Plus, it has a high elastic limit, which would be useful for a captain America shield (will happen soon).

Nitinol is a self healing metal that self heals from heat, and it is a nickel-titanium alloy (so it’s pretty strong).

Carbon nanotubes tubes are remarkable: they are harder than diamonds, lightweight, and 100X stronger than steel, and they have a high elastic limit.

These materials are all remarkable on their own, but imagine how they’d be together! It would self heal from kinetic energy and vibrations, be harder than diamonds, 100X stronger than steel, pretty lightweight, have a high elastic limit, and world be the perfect material for a captain America shield.

It’s the real-life vibranium.
