This refractory metal-based material, in whose discovery Dr. Alexander Kauffmann, now professor at the Ruhr University Bochum, played a major role, exhibits properties never seen before.

From Science Daily

"It is ductile at room temperature, its melting point is as high as about 2,000 degrees Celsius, and -- unlike refractory alloys known to date -- it oxidizes only slowly, even in the critical temperature range.

Thus, the result of our research has the potential to enable a real technological leap," says Kauffmann.
