NEW FORMULA TURNS CEMENT IN TO METAL Scientists working for an international team have discovered a novel formula for turning liquid cement into liquid metal. The formula makes cement a semi- conductor-, opening the possibility of its use in the consumer electronics market for thin films, protective coatings and computer chips. The new formula provides for a unique way to make metallic-glass material. Things made this way have many positive attributes including better resistance to corrosion than traditional metal and less brittleness than traditional glass. These attributes also include conductivity, low energy loss in magnetic fields, and fluidity for ease of processing and moulding.
