ABOUT US
Currently, when choosing a material to be used for a particular product, the best fit material for the task is found from a predefined set of materials (wood, steel, plastic…). Often, it is necessary to modify the original design of the product due to material constraints.
At ComplexMatters our approach is different. We think that it is better to look at the application first and then design a material from the ground up, essentially designing our own microstructure.
This results in a lighter, better suited product that can also exhibit material properties that were previously unattainable. The resolution at which these microstructures can be manufactured has recently moved into the scales of nanotechnology.
These novel materials can be combined with shape changing metals and polymers to create materials that are truly customised to their tasks and are able to adapt to their environment. |
