re: Room Temperature SuperConductor!!!

Anyone have access to the full article? Curious the abstract doesn't say it stayed superconducting at 300K (room temperature) and 100 GPa pressure.
If it does, then carbon nanotubes have been measured to have up to 150 GPa strength, albeit in microscale samples. Then if we could inject this material into carbon nanotubes they might be able to maintain it at this pressure.
Also, carbon nanotubes have been made at centimeter lengths but inexplicably measurements have yet to be made on these to see if they have the same high strength of the microscale samples.
