neutral  Antonio Chagas: Módulo de Young para nanotubos de carbono < 2 TPa; 10 TPa seria um valor impossível para nanotubos de carbono. Note-se que o teor da frase original aponta para uma grande produção. Ver https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-10279-0

  -> Na verdade é perfeitamente possível passar dos 10 TPa. Há nanotubos de carbono de 0, 27 TPa a 460 TPa: https://www.hindawi.com/journals/jnm/2016/6374092/ . Porém, concordo que a hipótese das toneladas por ano é mais provável. Obrigado, Antonio!
