As far as modern application goes I would be very interested to see if we can reduce the cost of wind turbines with this material. Aircraft industry today would likely stick with carbon fiber as performance would justify the higher cost. Might be different in recreational aviation. Auto construction is another big one. Morgan is still making cars out of wood, the knowledge is there. Whether it would be fuel economical while strong enough for crash survival would take a lot of testing.

For 19th century application I suspect the requirement of vast amounts of chemicals would preclude mass production for things like buildings, bridges and ships. But this was a time when wooden wagons and carriages needed lots of strong yet light wheels and axles. Weight reduction in gun carriages could make bigger field guns practical. I think these components stand to benefit the most.
