I heard that Toyobo has made a fiber that is stronger than iron, is that true?
High-performance Fiber that is lighter than water and stronger than iron
Toyobo's high-performance fiber "IZANAS™" is approximately 8 times stronger than piano wire, yet with a 10mm diameter "IZANAS™" rope can support up to 20 tons (theoretical value).
Taking full advantage of this strength, "IZANAS™" can be used in a wide range of products ranging from ship ropes and fishing lines to safety equipment such as protective gloves and headgear.
