Question: What kinds of items have been created with your tightly woven and knotted molecules?

David August answered on 8 Mar 2021:

Nothing yet unfortunately. They’re the first of their kind so we’re only just beginning to explore what sort of things they might be useful. The largest piece to-date is only about 0.1 mm wide (about the width of a hair) so we still have a lot of work to do before we can use it for anything large. But that is how research works. First we make something new, then we test it to see what it could be used for and then we work out how to make more of it.
