BULK METALLIC GLASS EXPERTISE ADVANCES MATERIALS TECHNOLOGY

At Materion, we use amorphous metals technology to optimize the uncommon properties of these materials to fabricate the products of tomorrow. We offer a variety of zirconium-based amorphous alloys, also known as bulk metallic glass (BMG) that:

  • Are high strength
  • Offer good corrosion resistance
  • Require little to no post processing         

HIGH-PERFORMANCE MATERIAL ALTERNATIVE

Materion’s amorphous metal alloys have a unique combination of mechanical and thermal properties that can be fabricated into high precision parts with exceptional cosmetic surfaces. Materion amorphous metal capabilities offer:

  • Strength-to-weight ratios that exceed most other structural materials
  • High strength and elastic limits approaching 2%
  • Outstanding corrosion resistance due to the lack of atomic structure
  • Net shape fabrication techniques including casting, injection molding, and “plastic-like” molding processes.
