Is it possible that 106c was patented with the same chemistry under a different name many years ago and that the term 106c is the generic version that other companies also use?

Patents for amorphous metal alloys go back to 1974 and earlier as well. Also known as bulk metal glass. Patents expire.

Had the brainpower that started LQMT remained I am sure LQMT would have been a huge success over a decade ago. But imo due to corruption, disagreements and lack of $$$$ to pay these pioneers of the alloy, they were scooped up by other companies. Thus the industry of amorphous metals became fragmented.

Would be nice if these fragmented companies got together, made nice and formed a mega bulk metal sales and manufacturing company with R&D once again here in the USA. Add to this the capacity of manufacturing abroad and you have sufficient back up for any whales large or small to do business with.

Good luck to all in LQMT.
Wish TC luck.
