Li Qingye, who is in Luzon, is actually very aware of the salvage and research situation of B43.
But he didn't intervene, instead letting his subordinates and professionals handle the matter.
After all, Homo sapiens company now has four control areas. If he, the chairman, has to do everything personally, then he can't handle it even with a super brain.
Otherwise, why would he recruit soldiers and horses?
As a decoration?
If you have subordinates, you should let them work. His core job is to control the general direction and scientific research. There is no need to do specific things personally.
At this time, he was studying nanotechnology, bionanotechnology to be precise.
In fact, the structures of living organisms and organic materials are various nanostructures in the microscopic world.
For example, silk, spider silk, abalone shell, etc. are typical nanostructured materials.
Li Qingye pays attention to research in this area, mainly because when he was studying biochips, he developed cell directional development technology and biomineralization induction technology.
After in-depth integration and improvement of these technologies, he successively developed a series of new biological nanomaterials.
Including the low-temperature glass and iron bamboo materials that were tested in the past, they are actually an attempt to use this technology.
Recently, Li Qingye collected a special kind of seabed snail, the scaly-footed snail, from near the hydrothermal springs in the Ceylon Ocean through a submarine.
From the genetic sequence of the scaly-footed snail, he discovered a special genetic sequence that can enrich metal elements and form a nanoscale iron sulfide layer.
Through genetic recombination technology, Li Qingye combined some of the dominant genes from corals, scaly-footed snails, hydrothermal vent bacteria, and metal mineral bacteria to create biological high manganese steel.
In a special breeding tank in the laboratory.
A piece of coral is growing slowly.
Several experimental assistants pressed the drainage system of the cultivation tank, and the nutrient solution in the cultivation tank was immediately sucked dry, and then the automatic transportation system was started.
The wheels at the bottom of the breeding tank began to drive slowly towards the elevator.
Through the elevator, we arrived at the experimental area on the upper floor.
Here, the four baffles of the breeding tank are opened, revealing layers of gray-white corals. Each layer of coral structure is 2 centimeters thick.
The emery waterjet quickly divided the layers of coral structures. The last layer, because the genetically modified coral polyps were still there, was put back into a new breeding tank and sent to the experimental area below for continued cultivation.
There are a total of 20 layers of cut coral structures, each layer is 2 centimeters thick and 100 centimeters long and wide.
By sending these plates into the acid hydrolysis tank, the coral calcification layer on the surface of the coral plates can be decomposed, revealing the dark gray biological high manganese steel plates inside.
The strength of this kind of plate is ridiculously high. Due to its low-temperature synthesis, each lattice is nanoscale and neatly arranged.
Its strength is 3.72 times that of ordinary high manganese steel, its hardness is 1.43 times, its corrosion resistance is 3.21 times, and its energy consumption is equivalent to about 23-27% of ordinary steel.
This kind of strength, hardness, and corrosion resistance are more than enough as raw materials for precision equipment.
In addition to bio-high manganese steel, there are also bio-molybdenum steel and bio-titanium steel. The former is resistant to high temperatures and wear, while the latter is lightweight, corrosion-resistant and has high bioaffinity.
In addition, the alloy materials produced in this way have another advantage, that is, they can reduce secondary processing and can be formed in one go.
In essence, biosynthetic alloys are additive processes.
Nowadays, finishing processing is generally subtractive processing.
These two processing methods bring different effects and their costs are also different.
As for who is better and who is worse, it depends on the technical level of both parties.
For example, additive processing 3D printing technology is currently difficult to compete with traditional subtractive processing in the field of metal processing.
But Li Qingye's biosynthetic material technology is different. After all, it has achieved ultra-precise growth at the nanometer level, and the technology is obviously a higher level.
Li Qingye with the help of his assistant.
Place a steel plate marked No. 53 on the high temperature test platform.
"Start heating it!"
"Yes, boss!" The assistant pressed the switch.
Immediately on the high-temperature test platform, an electric heating system similar to an electric arc furnace began to fully heat the steel plate.
Time slips away minute by minute.
The heating temperature on the platform is also rising steadily.
500 degrees Celsius…
800 degrees Celsius…
1200 degrees Celsius…
But the steel plate showed no signs of melting.
It was not until the temperature was raised to 3736 degrees Celsius that the steel plate deformed slightly, but still did not melt.
Then the temperature was raised again to 5122 degrees Celsius. At this time, the steel plate finally melted, but the melting was not complete, and some parts were in a lumpy state, like viscous magma.
Finally, the temperature reached 5506 degrees Celsius, and the molten steel was like boiling water.
The assistant held the biological tablet and recorded this series of experimental data.
Next, the heating and cooling experiments were repeated at 500 degrees Celsius, 1000 degrees Celsius, 1500 degrees Celsius, and 2000 degrees Celsius.
It is also divided into control groups of total heating, single-sided heating, and partial heating.
This alloy is biological nano-molybdenum manganese steel.
However, this material is not yet an ultimate high-temperature resistant material. The real high-temperature resistant material depends on ceramic matrix composite materials.
In this regard, Li Qingye is also working on it through biosynthesis.
Among the bionanoceramic sequences formed by adding a portion of carbon, molybdenum, and titanium, some varieties can currently grow bionanoceramics with a melting point of 5637 degrees Celsius and a boiling point of 5912 degrees Celsius.
Why does Li Qingye pay so much attention to the research and development of materials?
The reason is that the precision processing technology of Homo sapiens is very backward. Let alone catching up with Europe and the United States, even when compared with Chinese companies, there is no comparison.
With the processing technology and processing equipment of the last century, no matter how powerful the supercomputer and engineers are, it is difficult for a skilled woman to make a meal without rice.
Therefore, materials have become the only choice for overtaking in corners.
As long as the materials are good enough, you can definitely play the set of flying bricks.
The engine isn't good enough, is it?
Directly to ultra-high temperature deflagration.
Not accurate enough?
Then compensate with hardness and strength.
Outdated design?
Hard pile of materials.
This is like a chef cooking. The other person's cooking skills are very good and can turn rotten food into magic. Then I will just use top-quality ingredients and cook it in the simplest way.
The advantage of the Homo sapiens company is the low-cost production of materials. These top-quality materials can be sold at cabbage prices. Even if the processing technology is not good, the performance will be similar.
For example, some time ago, the Honsawady Development Group purchased an old MiG-25 fighter jet production line from Sukhoi Airlines in Lucia through product exchange.
Sukhoi, which took over the legacy of the MiG Company, did not pay too much attention to such outdated things. After refurbishing the sealed production lines, it sold them to the Development Group in a tearful sale.
Sapiens Company previously purchased the MiG-25 production line through Vest because it was interested in the stainless steel design of the MiG-25.
This is no joke.
Due to the use of a large amount of stainless steel materials, the weight of the MiG-25's body is too large, resulting in very high fuel consumption, mediocre range, and short engine life.
But this shortcoming is not a problem at all for the Homo sapiens company.
Nowadays, with the various new materials developed by Li Qingye, just a few of them can completely transform the MiG-25.
By then, the upgraded MiG-25 will probably not be any worse than the Rafale among the current fighter jets in the world.
