If this works at all, every material scientist in the world will be working on similar materials and manufacturing processes for them to improve the effect and make them more manufacturable.
I hope so. My fear is after seeing what the fossil fuel industries did to stop alternatives from arising, that they will embark on a new campaign to undermine this for as long as possible.
I think this would be a big enough deal that even they couldn't stop everyone from trying to use it.
Agreed. Very rarely do scientific discoveries like this leak into the mainstream news cycle, but this one has and so it'll be very difficult to keep people from losing their shit if any organization tries to suppress it.
