The firm filed a patent in 2013 for a curved glass phone case made from liquidmetal.
Liquidmetal is a mix of titanium, nickel, copper and zirconium among other metals making it tough, light and scratch resistant. It also feels as smooth as glass.
It is a slow cooling alloy which means it can be moulded more easily than steel or aluminium, and is more hard wearing.
The patents detail a process that involves injection moulding and 3D printing using bulk metallic glasses (BMG) powder - another name for liquidmetal.
Layers of BMG could be printed using a 3D printer to create the casing for phones, tablets and even TVs.
