  1. Metal Rubber By: Armando Guzman MEEN 3344

  2. Metal Rubber TM is a unique self-assembled nancomposite material that combines the high electrical conductivity of metals with the low mechanical modulus of elastomers.  The self-assembly process allows the simultaneous modification of both conductivity and modulus during manufacturing.  Maximum electrical conductivity is 5x10-6 W cm.  Maximum elongation is approximately 200%.  The electrical conductivity varies slightly with elongation.

  3. Cost • Small sheet of 6 inch² x 1 mm think cost $1000 • Large sheet of 12 inch² x 1 mm thick$5000 • Rectangular strip samples 2.5 inch long, 0.5 inch wide, 1 mm thick $500 for pack of five

  4. What's so Special • stretch to about 200 to 300 percent of its original length and completely reform • withstand exposure to many different kinds of chemicals (from jet fuel to acetone) • withstand extreme temperature • heated up to 700 degrees Fahrenheit, and cooled to minus 167 degrees Fahrenheit • Can be boiled overnight in water

  5. Future uses • flexible artificial limbs • aircraft wings with both sturdiness and more give • bendable circuits that would make your laptop or cell phone more durable • stents and other biomedical products • Cars and seat cushions • flexible TVs you can carry in your pocket
