AMORPHOUS METAL ALLOYS
This alloys represent the first enabling materials technology since the creation of thermoplastics and possess characteristics that make them superior in many ways to other popular high performance materials. They have an "amorphous" atomic structure, which is unprecedented for bulk structural metals. Also they include a multi-component chemical compositions, which are optimized for various properties and processes.This alloys combine a number of desirable material features, including high tensile strength, excellent corrosion resistance, very high coefficient of restitution and excellent anti-wearing characteristics, while also being able to be heat-formed in processes similar to thermoplastics.
