What are Reflexive Materials Technologies (RMT™ technologies)? 
Reflexive Materials Technologies (RMT™ technologies), from UniStates, are a lower-cost way to make better products, from automobile components to human replacement parts. RMT technologies enable the production of a vast range of industrial, military, and consumer products that are simultaneously lighter, stronger, stiffer, and tougher than conventional products. This is an unprecedented combination of properties. It is a combination that manufacturers and builders have sought for centuries. UniStates’ innovative manufacturing technologies enable the highly efficient production of superior products of all types made with metals, plastics, ceramics, and other sturdy materials, including biomaterials. UniStates calls these RMT Informed™ products and structures. RMT Informed™ products and structures are particularly advantageous where lighter weight, superior strength, greater durability, and affordability are important … CLICK HERE FOR MORE.

What do RMT™ technologies do?
RMT™ technologies make extraordinary products and structures with ordinary materials that have been enhanced through engineering with RMT™ technologies. Products and structures engineered with RMT™ technologies are lighter, stronger, stiffer, tougher, and more durable than products or structures made with ordinary materials. RMT™ technologies prevent structures and structural members, a beam for example, from breaking until they have reached the upper limits of the mechanical strength of the materials of which they are made. Like the arch, RMT™ technologies rely primarily on the inherent stiffness of materials, that is, their compression strength … CLICK HERE FOR MORE.

How do RMT™ technologies work?
Unlike current technologies, RMT™ technologies provide both the design precision and fabrication control to produce products made of the least amount of material(s) sufficient to assure reliable stress/strain management according to performance specifications. RMT™ technologies achieve design precision and fabrication control through distributed porosity. To strike the essential balance between material density and porosity, RMTSM manufacturing technologies install discrete, symmetrically aligned voids into structures. These voids shape the mass of each particular structure into a truss-like configuration. This is the RMT™ framework. The truss-like RMT™ framework transforms the way products and structures respond to load. This transformation defuses the threat of stress, which can cause a product to fail, for example, to fracture. By managing and diffusing stress, RMT™ technologies optimize the structural performance of RMT Precision™ materials and RMT Informed™ products and structures … CLICK HERE FOR MORE.

How do RMT™ technologies improve the performance of composite materials?
RMT™ technologies re-engineer current composite designs to coordinate and exploit fully the structural strengths and performance advantages of both reinforcements and matrix materials. This makes RMT Precision™ composites stronger, stiffer, tougher, lighter, and more economical. The engineering strategy of RMT™ technologies relies on complementary specialization of these two basic components of composites. The matrix material is designed to specialize in bearing compression load primarily; while the reinforcement, e.g., RMT™ beaded filaments, specializes in bearing tensile load primarily. This strategy adds the strength of one to the other, making the most efficient use of … CLICK HERE FOR MORE.

Are RMT Precision™ materials and RMT Informed™ products and structures expensive?
No other technology can achieve the precision of the RMTSM manufacturing technologies at costs that allow lower prices for finished products. Manufacturing costs are lower because the processes utilized by the RMTSM manufacturing technologies require little or no human involvement and are continuous, from input of the raw material to output of the finished product. Because RMT Precision™ materials and RMT Informed™ products and structures are relatively simple to manufacture, RMT™ technologies can be used to make the components of airplanes, appliances, automobiles, bridges, buildings, computers, roads, tanks, tools, and numerous other valuable products and structures, including human replacement parts. RMTSM manufacturing technologies enable the efficient production of a virtually limitless list of products made with metals, plastics, ceramics, and other sturdy materials, including biomaterials, and RMT™ technologies affords this typically without major capital investments in manufacturing plants and facilities. The primary goals of the RMTSM manufacturing technologies are to (a) minimize production costs and (b) conserve materials … CLICK HERE FOR MORE.

How are RMT Precision™ materials and RMT Informed™ products and structures made?
RMTSM manufacturing technologies install any number of pre-programmed pores, or voids, in products at the same time the products are being made. The voids are created in situ, during the manufacturing process. Each void is placed precisely in a predetermined location in a product to assure its superior performance. Voids can be put inside RMT Precision™ materials and RMT Informed™ products and structures with innovative new preforms. These new preforms are designed specifically for use with the patented RMTSM manufacturing technologies. … CLICK HERE FOR MORE.

Are RMT™ technologies environmentally friendly?
RMT™ technologies can be applied to many industries, but one of the first applications should be toward creating a healthier environment by using RMT™ technologies to reduce the pollution we emit when we travel. RMT™ technologies can be applied immediately to begin a steady reduction in the weight of motor vehicles and, thereby, steadily reduce the amount of energy needed to operate vehicles. With a steadily lower fuel requirement, a car, for example, could travel further on a gallon of gasoline. With steadily lower gasoline usage, there would be steadily less exhaust fumes (carbon monoxide, etc.) emitted into the environment … CLICK HERE FOR MORE.
