Metal is you, metal is me, metal is the next generation of iPhone Paul forefront!

Apple (Apple) has officially announced today, Liquidmetal Technologies hands on the one-vote patented technology to buy

, The future of Apple (Apple) will be able to get all the company's patent content in consumer electronics products in this area of ??permanent, global use

, In addition to the patent can be applied to their own products, but also can decide whether the patent content to other companies to use, and charge licensing fees; Liquidmetal Technologies still retain the company's patents in other areas of the use of authorized power


The

As for why Apple (Apple) to move the big deal to accept the company's patent it

And stomach capsule Is basically a fancy to their home by the development of special metal materials Liquidmetal (a non-crystalline alloy) Du Juan flowers

, It has relative to other metal materials better hardness, toughness, ductility, corrosion resistance, etc., as for the details of the amount of the acquisition, Apple is not announced.

US Liquidmetal Technologies is currently in the field of widespread use of amorphous alloys

, The amorphous alloy was invented by the California Institute of Technology as early as 1992. This alloy, named company Liquidmetal, is nearly twice as high as titanium metal, and it does not rust. In addition, the Liquidmetal alloy is suitable for manufacturing parts by casting: the metal does not shrink during condensation


, So the casting accuracy can reach 1 micron.

About Liquidmetal Technologies

Liquidmetal alloys are so attractive that their structural characteristics are determined

, Its structure is not like other metals and alloys that crystal, but like glass and plastic as amorphous. The first generation of amorphous alloys was available as early as the late 1950s, but at that time the liquid alloys had to be cooled very quickly in order to obtain amorphous structures, so that crystals could not be formed. Thus, the first generation of amorphous alloys is obtained in the form of thin strips or dusty particles. The main drawback of the amorphous alloys is their poor heat resistance - the crystal structure is reheated when heated to the melting point.

Liquidmetal alloys developed by Liquidmetal Technologies Unlike the first generation of amorphous alloys, their amorphous structures are formed when they are slowly cooled after melting

The Can do this is due to the use of the atomic size of the alloy composition is obviously different, so the alloy composition is difficult to combine into a crystal. It is known that copper, titanium, nickel, zirconium and beryllium are present in its composition. The disadvantage of Liquidmetal alloys is still poor temperature resistance (softening at 400 ° C).

The golf club has become the first practical application of Liquidmetal alloys, and the high elasticity of Liquidmetal alloys is greater than that of balls made with other materials. But Liquidmetal Technologies now wants to expand the range of Liquidmetal alloys, and in addition to sporting goods (which will soon add baseball and snowboarding on a golf club), Liquidmetal alloys can be used to make lightweight,

, Due to the ruggedness of this alloy, it can also be made without the need to sharpen the surgical scalpel - with a sharp knife sharp knife can be made by casting method. In principle, Liquidmetal alloys are particularly suitable for the aerospace sector, but Liquidmetal alloys are not likely to be used in the aerospace field
