cosmic hegemony

Chapter 79, Perfect Materials

What material science and technology needs is the investment of a large amount of resources and a large amount of experimental data. Although Huaxia's investment over the years is still acceptable, it is still far behind the advanced countries in the world.

Leaving aside anything else, some countries in Western Europe have a very famous story in terms of materials. In the last century, West Germany put a large amount of smelted steel into the sea, and then took it out for use after standing still for half a century. When placed in the sea during the period, although the surface has been severely corroded by seawater, the internal stress of the steel has been completely eliminated. Such steel has been used in the most precise machine tools, military, aerospace, and aviation fields.

Just to relieve stress, natural aging can be used to eliminate it, and the material can be kept in the sea for 50 years. This spirit alone is far beyond the comprehension of our current impetuous mood.

Of course, all of this is nothing to Li Fu. There are countless material formulas, manufacturing methods, etc. among the seeds of super civilization civilization. Li Fu can get all kinds of materials at his fingertips. In the first step plan, there will be reasons for preparing to build Fuyun Material Technology Company.

Material technology is the foundation. For others, it may take countless resources to slowly explore and experiment to find out the ideal material they need, but for Li Fu, it is not necessary at all. Any material needed can be found directly from the seeds of civilization to smelt the material.

Of course, these are low-level materials used in the development of primary civilizations. If it is atomic materials, degenerate materials, quark materials, etc. used by intermediate and advanced cosmic civilizations, it will not be so simple.

"Old Liu, don't worry. Let's think about the materials slowly. There are always more methods than problems. If we can combine the characteristics of ceramic materials and steel alloy materials, we can create a material that is strong enough to withstand plasma engines. materials with a high core temperature."

Li Fu smiled and continued to comfort Li Fu. Material is really not a problem for Li Fu. After searching the seeds of civilization, Li Fu found countless combinations of materials that can meet the current needs, such as tantalum carbide hafnium alloy, Ceramic alloys, tungsten carbide alloys, etc., there are many kinds of elements in the universe, and the combinations between them can form endless, correspondingly, endless materials can also be born.

"Ceramic materials can only withstand high temperatures of about 3000 degrees at most, and although ceramic materials have very good chemical stability and high hardness at high temperatures, their ductility is too poor, but their tensile strength is low. Plasticity and toughness Very bad."

Liu Shiying shook his head. Although he is an expert in aerodynamics, he is also very familiar with various materials. When Li Fu mentioned ceramic materials, he shook his head and said.

"I'm talking about ceramic alloy materials formed by combining ceramic materials and alloy materials, not pure ceramic materials."

Li Fu smiled mysteriously. The new concept of ceramic alloy material has never been seen before, and it is also the first time Li Fu proposed it.

"Ceramic alloy materials? I don't know much about materials. I'll ask the higher-ups for instructions and send some material experts to help. The plasma engine has already been manufactured. Don't let me give up on a small material problem."

Hearing Li Fu's words, Liu Shiying raised his eyebrows, and then cheered up again. He himself is not a person who gives up lightly, and he is just temporarily frustrated when encountering difficulties, but it is absolutely impossible to say Just let him go.

"Well, our current work can be divided into two departments. One is to study atomic batteries, and strive to develop atomic batteries that can store electricity on a large scale as soon as possible. The materials are researched."

"These two civilizations are the most immediate problems before our eyes, and they are also the core and key to whether our plasma engines can be really useful. After solving these two civilizations, I estimate that our plasma engines can be equipped with fighter jets to fly in the blue sky." .”

Li Fu nodded. Scientific research requires a very firm character, to endure loneliness and keep prosperity, in order to finally achieve something on the avenue of science and technology.

Soon, because the country attaches great importance to the plasma engine project, it basically gives what it wants. After all, this involves the core of the new fighter jet in the future. event.

The cost of a plasma engine is more than one billion casually. The country doesn't even blink an eye, saying it's ruined. The project team's request for top scientists in the field of materials is also coming soon. reply.

Yin Ya, a beautiful 30-year-old scientist, and Wu Chengying, a very young top material scientist in her 30s, were soon dispatched to the project team with a huge team to jointly study new types of materials that can New materials to meet the needs of plasma engines.

Although Li Fu really wanted to tell the manufacturing method of the new material at once, ideally told Li Fu that he must not do that. Li Fu still showed the appearance of a peerless genius in materials.

From the very beginning, he only knew a little bit about material science and technology, and then quickly relied on his strong learning ability, analysis ability, and comprehension ability to impress the people in the material research team, and then slowly Li Fu turned the research direction of everyone to I have already determined a good direction to guide the past.

"High temperature resistance of 3500 degrees!"

"High temperature resistance of 4000 degrees!"

"High temperature resistance of 4500 degrees!"

With the progress of the project, the field of material science has achieved leaps and bounds like the research work of plasma engines. The high temperature resistance limit of the new materials produced has been continuously improved, and the results have been fruitful. The results are like a blowout burst. come out.

"Unbelievable, why didn't I think of this before, ceramic materials and alloy materials are combined, all materials are made into the finest powder, and then bonded and shaped with special glue, we will soon be able to produce 5000 High temperature material!"

Yin Ya has a pair of eyes. Although she is 30 years old, she looks no different from a college student who just graduated from school. Her tall figure and slender legs are very eye-catching.

Originally, the proportion of women among those engaged in scientific research is very low, and the probability of beautiful women is even lower. However, this Yin Ya, who is both intelligent and beautiful, is also a genius. At the age of only 30, she is already a leader in China's domestic material science and technology field. Top experts.

At this time, she was looking at the materials in the experiment, and her eyes were shining brightly. She has learned a lot from the research of materials technology, and she is even more impressed by Li Fu. From the beginning, she thought that Li Fu was a researcher of biology, How could the aerodynamic people make a difference in the field of materials? Up to now, they have obeyed and admired Li Fu's words.

"Haha, it won't be too soon. Our latest materials have arrived. I guess the new materials we manufactured this time will be enough to meet the demand."

Wu Chengying, who is also an expert in the field of material science, said with a smile at this time, and saw the staff in the team installing a brand new material on the test bench at this time.

"It is very light, and its density is lower than that of aluminum alloy, only 2.12. This means that if it is used to manufacture aerospace vehicles, it can greatly reduce the weight of the aircraft, and it has an unparalleled effect on improving the integrity."

When Wu Chengying saw the first item of data, he couldn't help but speak out.

"Experimental conductivity...almost complete insulation. In this regard, several people have continued the electrical insulation of ceramic materials. It is incredible. You must know that various metal elements are added to this material."

"Test the hardness!"

"Test tensile strength, ductility!"

"Test the elastic strength!"

"Experimental shock test."

"..."

The test data of each item soon appeared on the huge computer monitor, and everyone couldn't help shouting in their hearts, "Perfect material, the data of this item seems to be specially made for this purpose, and it perfectly fits the plasma engine." requirements for materials.

"Perform a heat test!"

After hearing this sound, everyone couldn't help but stop breathing. When it comes to the most critical link, the material of the core components of the plasma engine must withstand a temperature of more than 5000 degrees. Long-term stable work can truly meet the requirements of the plasma engine.

In the laboratory, a new type of ceramic alloy material was placed in the middle, and a blazing and dazzling flame began to grill it. In order to obtain a higher temperature, this flame is not an ordinary flame, and ordinary methods cannot produce 5000 Only special methods and means can produce a 5000-degree flame. You must know that the surface temperature of the sun is only 5500 degrees.

The blazing and dazzling flames are constantly roasting the off-white ceramic alloy material. If it is an ordinary steel material, it will soon turn red and white, and then melt into juice. Under such high temperature, the molecules will be extremely active , are easily separated.

However, this off-white ceramic alloy material turned out to be completely insulated, without any change at all. After being calcined for more than an hour, the temperature even exceeded 5000 degrees at one point, and even the temperature in the air in the laboratory was already so high that the surrounding The degree of melting of other things, this new type of ceramic alloy material is still not the slightest change.

"Haha, high temperature resistance of 5000 degrees!"

Wu Chengying was so excited that she almost jumped up. Where was the whole person shouting loudly? The whole project team couldn't help cheering. Yin Ya looked at Li Fu with a smile on her face, and found that Li Fu kept a faint smile all the time. , it seems that all this has long been in the chest.
