Chapter 484 - Shocking New Alloy!

"It's really a new type of alloy?!"

Looking at the calculations on the paper, Professor Yu started to calculate. He found that the characteristics of several common metal materials were written on it. However, according to the technology of alloys, these metal materials were really suitable for making alloys.

And look at the calculation steps and formulas, they were all calculated according to the direction of the alloy!

However...

What kind of alloy was this?

Professor Yu had some doubts. Although the materials on this paper were common, if the techniques used were different, the properties of the alloy that was finally created would be vastly different.

In fact, if there was no suitable combination, although the alloy could be created, its properties might not even be as good as ordinary metals.

Therefore, the key point was to see how these materials were matched. Moreover, the process of making alloys was especially important.

Professor Yu was lost in thought. According to the thoughts of this researcher, he had already come up with a set of mature ideas, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to bring it to the laboratory for testing. This was because a new type of alloy would first have to be calculated, and that was to say, theoretically speaking, it would have to be feasible before it could be tested and verified.

However, the problem was that this paper didn't have any written instructions on how to manufacture it. It only listed a few formulas and principles, but there were no further instructions. The only things left on the paper were the things that seemed like ghost runes, or were simply like tadpoles, and couldn't be understood at all.

Professor Yu's curiosity was piqued. He subconsciously lit a cigarette and sat there thinking deeply. Following the line of thought on this piece of paper, he continued to simulate the process in his mind.

Gradually, Professor Yu's expression became serious, because he discovered that each of the materials listed on this paper had its own unique advantages. If he could bring out the advantages of these materials and successfully make them into alloys, then the performance of this new type of alloy would be frighteningly strong.

At the very least, Professor Yu still could not think of any alloy in the world that could compare to this new type of alloy!

But the question was, how could he bring out the properties of these materials and successfully fuse them into a new alloy?

This was the biggest problem!

At the same time, this was also the most difficult problem in the area of alloy manufacturing.

Because the material properties of each metal are almost universally known, such as the fact that a certain metal may have the best thermal conductivity and that the strength of a certain metal is far superior to that of other metals, this is well-known.

The key problem was how to fuse all of these properties into the same alloy and make it fully visible.

This was the core technology!

What Professor Yu wanted to know the most right now was the meaning of the ghost-glyph symbol on the bottom half of the paper. Did the researcher casually draw it, or did these symbols represent a special meaning?

Professor Yu thought of many possibilities, such as the characteristics and arrangement of these metals on the periodic table. However, he was disappointed to discover that none of the strange symbols he had guessed could match the ones in front of him.

"Just what do these symbols represent …?" Professor Yu was full of doubts.

"Ding … …"

A crisp sound, like the sound of metal colliding, made Professor Yu recover from his thoughts. He looked up and saw one of his students using a broom to clean up the pile of junk from the lab's workbench, sweeping it into the trash can.

One of the objects, which looked like a steel ball, fell out of the pile and rolled onto the ground. The clear sound came from the little thing hitting the ground.

He lightly shook his head, folded the paper in his hand, and solemnly put it away in his pocket. He subconsciously felt that the things recorded on the paper seemed to be very valuable, and perhaps, he also wanted to understand the meaning behind those strange symbols.

"Teacher..."

A student walked over with a garbage bag, indicating for Professor Yu to throw the small steel ball in.

Professor Yu raised his hand. Just as he was about to throw away that small thing, his hand suddenly stopped mid-air. His gaze was fixed on that small steel ball.

"Yi?"

Professor Yu could not help but let out a cry of surprise when he saw this. Following that, he immediately brought the small steel ball in front of his eyes and observed it. "It's a little strange …"

Puzzled, the student asked, "Teacher, what's wrong?"

Professor Yu waved his hand when he heard this. His gaze was still fixated on the small steel ball in his hand. He muttered to himself, "How strange. This is obviously metal. Why is it so light?"

That's right, Professor Yu felt strange, the ball in his hand was the size of a small steel ball, but when he held it in his hand, he realized that it was as light as a plastic bean, so light that no one could notice it was in his hand.

"It's a little strange!"

Professor Yu said to himself, "Is it a new material?"

Thinking of this, he raised his head and asked, "Where did this thing come from?"

Although the student was baffled, he did not ask any further questions. "I'm not too sure either. It might be on the workbench …"

Professor Yu suddenly remembered the piece of paper he had just read.

"Don't clean up the junk, don't throw it away!" Professor Yu suddenly said, "Put them aside first. Be careful not to disperse …" "In addition, immediately turn on the equipment to check what metal this little thing is!"

"Yes sir!"

The student nodded at once.

Professor Yu's heart was slightly filled with antic.i.p.ation. He had a kind of hope.

Soon, all the equipment needed for the inspection were prepared. Professor Yu didn't do it himself, but gave the little thing to the students for inspection. Even though he had some expectations, the students could still do these small things well.

As a teacher, Professor Yu was naturally competent.

According to their testing habits, the few students first observed the ball, then placed it under a microscope to examine it. Just this first step of observation caused the students to be somewhat surprised.

"Yi?"

"This is …"

"That's not right?" How could this be? "

A few students immediately began discussing in a strange tone.

Professor Yu immediately asked, "What's wrong?"

One of the students replied, "Teacher, this thing is a bit... "Strange."

"Oh?"

Professor Yu's spirits were lifted as he asked, "What's the strange method?"

The student said, "Teacher, this little thing looks very light, but the material structure inside is extremely tight. Although we still don't know what the other molecular structures are like, but just looking at the physical structure, it's not ordinary at all. With such a tight structure, I think it's almost comparable to some high-strength metals."

Professor Yu thought to himself, "Continue the test!"

A few students suddenly became busy. However, when it came to sampling, they encountered difficulties because even with the equipment in the laboratory, they were unable to cut even the tiniest bit of the ball. Even under the extremely high temperature, the ball almost didn't change at all.

Seeing this situation, Professor Yu's expectation was even greater. He said, "Use strong acid corrosion and chemical a.n.a.lysis!"

However, the results made these students even more surprised. Even strong acids could not corrode the surface of the ball, let alone examine it.

Helpless, they could only get on the equipment to scan the ball.

Under Professor Yu's gaze, the students tossed and turned for a long time. It wasn't until the sky darkened and the management staff from the laboratory came to remind them that they finally made a preliminary a.n.a.lysis and obtained the a.n.a.lysis atlas and other results.

Looking at the results of the examination, the students were astonished.

"Alloy?!"

While the students were shocked, they couldn't help but look at each other. This ball was actually a type of alloy?

This was completely out of everyone's expectations.

It had to be known that even the most stable alloy they had ever known could not possibly cause them to use so many testing methods!

This alloy is also … Isn't it too stable?

Is this an alloy? Even if they said that it was a completely new and extremely stable new type of metal, they would definitely not have any objections.

However, this a.n.a.lysis clearly showed that this was a piece of alloy. There were a few metallic components inside, and they all occupied a certain amount.

"Enter the blueprints into the database and compare it with the blueprints for all the alloys!" He didn't even know when he had stood up from his chair.

"Yes."

A student did as he was told.

The result was - the conclusion was that there was no matching result.

"As expected!"

Like the students, when Professor Yu saw the results of the test, he was equally shocked. However, apart from the shock, he was also indescribably excited, because he was sure that this was definitely a brand-new alloy.

Because there was no comparison in the database, this meant that this was definitely not a known alloy, but a completely new alloy!

More importantly, this new alloy, not to mention its properties, just its hardness and stability was enough to make any other alloy unable to catch its eye!

As for the other metals … That was even less worth mentioning!

Even though he did not know the other properties of this alloy, such as thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity and so on, just its hardness and stability were enough to make it stand out in the alloy world!

"A major discovery!"

Professor Yu was unable to contain his excitement.
