DearJan thank you in advance for helping at All Experts. I am looking for the best shock absorbing and durable material made to be used in a cushion.Do you know of any product of NanoTechnology that might fill the bill.If not I hope you can direct me to a company that might be working on a new material.Thank you so much for your time Regards Fred

Answer
Depends on the size of your cushion.  See the following article for 'nano-springs':  http://www.nano.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=385

Then there are advances in the area of cushions for automotive use:  http://www.nano.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=385.
