Waltham, MA - June 23, 2004 - UniStates, LLC revealed today its secret method for making porous materials with beaded preforms. The beads are like pearls on a necklace and form voids inside products during manufacturing. Putting the voids inside™ makes a vast number of industrial, military, and consumer products simultaneously lighter, stronger, and tougher. "This is a combination of properties that manufacturers and builders have sought for centuries," said Charles R. Owens, UniStates' Chairman and CEO. "We achieve this with our newly-patented manufacturing technologies for making and using beaded preforms."

UniStates' new manufacturing technologies complete a rare patent trifecta on the design, engineering, and manufacturing systems of UniStates' Reflexive Materials Technologies™ (RMT™), which make extraordinary products from ordinary materials, including virtually all metals, plastics, ceramics, and biomaterials. "At the heart of our new manufacturing technologies is the simple innovation of adding beads to continuous fibers to make beaded preforms that create products with a revolutionary three-dimensional response to stress," Owens said. "This simple innovation also affords the use of numerous long-established and low-cost manufacturing processes to make a limitless number of superior RMT-engineered Precision Products & Structures™."

About UniStates

UniStates, LLC is a 17-year old technology company with the right to commercialize Reflexive Materials Technologies (RMT). RMT can be used to make the components of airplanes, automobiles, bridges, buildings, roads, computers, toasters, tanks, tools, and numerous other valuable products and structures, including human replacement parts. RMT manufacturing technologies enable the efficient production of a virtually limitless list of industrial, military, and consumer products made with metals, plastics, ceramics, and other sturdy materials, including biomaterials, and RMT affords this typically without major capital investments in manufacturing plants and facilities. RMT manufacturing technologies put symmetrically-aligned voids inside to shape ordinary materials into Precision Products & Structures. Beaded Preforms are one of two basic types of precursors used to install voids in RMT-engineered Precision Products & Structures. RMT is particularly advantageous where lighter weight, superior strength, greater durability, and affordability are important.
