Ok so I just discovered this superb and very costly armor material of nickel phosphorous microlattice. It is less than half as dense as silica aerogel and has much better physical properties. So be it it cost over 5,000 credits per kg 
But enough about it in game. I decided to look it up in real life and it turns out that microlattices have some seriously impressive properties! For example microlattices are some of the least dense material out there and they are very elastic. According to one source I read the microlattice can be compressed to half its original volume and return back to full size. In addition it is fairly strong and quite a good insulator! So it isn't that surprising that it is such a great armor material.
So has anyone else found some sort of really interesting material that might be useful ingame or is already in game?
