Chapter 449: Unconventional Fluid Metal
Yan Xia applied for a job at Super Star Technology.
There are conditions for entering a super company like this, and it is not like an ordinary button-pressing factory that anyone can do.
More than 90% of the employees of Super Star Technology are design and R&D personnel, and they will develop many novel things as the company's side business.
The most important main business is of course the unconventional fluid metal and its derivative products.
Super Star Technology is very large, with 3.87 million employees, and the market value of the entire company has reached 20 trillion, which is the market value in this star field. If Super Star Technology is listed in the Federation, the market value will plummet to less than 10 trillion.
Because there are too many companies like Super Star Technology in the federal market, it is difficult for Super Star Technology to attract attention.
Trillion.
You should know that the mainstream large companies in the Federation are now all above 100 billion in market value. The gap of thousands and tens of thousands of times, although not as big as the level difference between civilizations, is definitely a crushing.
This large company, which is the first in the Rusty Star Country, is too small in the Federation, and it can only dominate a certain star system.
Yan Xia could falsify his information at will. He easily entered the Super Star Technology Company and became the leader of a team.
This team specializes in the research and development of unconventional fluid metal items.
Here, Yan Xia came into contact with this thing for the first time.
When he saw the characteristics of unconventional fluid metal, he was surprised.
He had seen many new materials, but the structural stability of this material was unheard of.
Unconventional fluid metal is not actually a metal. Its main material is silicon 28736. The atomic sequence of ordinary silicon is 14, which means that silicon has only 134 electrons, but the Federation has long entered the era of arbitrary manipulation of basic elements.
So it is normal for silicon to have 28736 electrons.
Why choose it? It is not because of its large number of electrons, because the structure of silicon atoms is more stable when they have 28736 electrons. This kind of atom is a very basic material for the Federation.
In short, it is cheap.
The price of each dense silicon 28736 material fluctuates around 482 energy coins. Generally speaking, with the continuous expansion of the human civilization star field, the price of this basic atomic material will become cheaper and cheaper.
It is not rare for heteroconventional fluid metal atoms to exist. What is really important is actually a technology.
When heteroconventional fluid metal is subjected to external force, its atoms will quickly fit together, the orbits of multiple atoms will alternate, and nearly 100% of the electrons inside will instantly become free electrons to maintain the connection between the nuclei.
Even this statement is somewhat wrong. At that time, the heteroconventional fluid metal as a whole has become a huge multi-nuclear atom. It is as difficult to break it as to cause nuclear fission.
Even more difficult.
Because this is not only caused by the movement of electrons, but also the pairing of atomic orbits. The atomic orbit was originally a closed-loop orbit inside an atom, but when the heteroconventional fluid metal is subjected to force, the orbits of all atoms in the entire object will be connected with other atomic orbits, and have a very high coordination ability with any electron.
It is a very complex sum of technologies. Yan Xia even found that it does not need other energy to complete these changes.
The only source of energy it needs is the force applied to it. The greater the force applied to it, the tighter the adhesion of the heteroconventional fluid metal.
This substance will become completely liquid under absolute vacuum. Generally, it is like a piece of plasticine.
But this piece of plasticine is very difficult to change its shape, because when you pick it up with your hands and knead it, the force applied will be resisted by it.
It has two processing methods.
One is to shape it at the beginning, and then it will slowly deform over time. This time is not long, about 2,000 to 30,000 years.
Why there is such a long time span depends on the mass of the object itself.
Because the mass of the object itself will affect the gravity it receives. When the object is larger, the gravity is greater, and the resistance of the abnormal fluid metal is stronger, and it is less likely to change.
It can interact with gravity, and this material is filled with a large number of special gravitons.
This is what Yan Xia was most surprised about.
Because although the Federation has made a lot of basic elements now, it has not been able to complete the transformation of gravitons, but he has seen it now.
The more he studies, the more Yan Xia can feel the magic of this material.
The only disadvantage he sees now is that this material is too soft in normal state, but it can be solved by applying external force, that is, if it is made into the shell of a spacecraft, it will become extremely hard when it is powered on.
This is the most direct way, and gravity can also be used to constrain it.
The only problem is that weak and strong forces are fatal to it, but there are very few things in nature that affect the stability of weak and strong forces.
So it is highly unlikely to be applied to the battlefield.
Yan Xia did not see that Super Star Technology Company was involved in the business of spacecraft or weapons. At most, it was developing a special mecha that would work in a special environment, such as the surface of a star.
This special mecha and other special industrial machinery occupied a large business segment of Super Star Technology Company.
Yan Xia had a question after the study.
Is this really something that two people from the old federation can research?
If it was a scholar from the Federation, Yan Xia would not have such doubts even if he was not ranked.
But Giottofen and Duma K were ordinary people in the old Federation. According to their memories, they did not learn any professional knowledge in the hundreds of thousands of years of flying, at most they had some survival skills.
Far from enough.
This feeling is like a factory worker who screws screws in a factory and one day found a way to treat cancer.
These two things are completely unrelated.
"There should be something I didn't notice."
Yan Xia carefully explored the unusual fluid metal and suddenly found that it was actually related to Giottofen and Duma K.
This metal can become very hard when it is affected by gravity. The data given by Super Star Technology Company is very vague. Yan Xia thinks it is possible to withstand the huge gravity inside the wormhole.
"If this is true, then it is interesting."
Perhaps it is not an accident that Giottofen and Duma K traveled through the wormhole. Did they discover the remains of an advanced civilization?
Only they know this.
Yan Xia now wants to gain some other information. He wants to know if there are other good things on these two treasure boys.
