Superstrong paper with interesting electrical properties

Sheets of cheap (graphite-sourced) carbon, really. However, the electrical properties can get interesting.

It could be used as electrolytes or hydrogen storage materials in fuel cells, electrodes in supercapacitors and batteries, and super-thin chemical filters. It could also be mixed with polymers or metals to make materials for use in aircraft fuselages, cars, and buildings.
