This week, a publication long in the making was finally published, telling a story of a new material “RAMETRIC<\/a>” that was first discovered by Scott Compel who went on to form AEMS Corp<\/a> based on this material.

We offer the following description for the cover art (shown again above): Metal-rich soft materials such as metallogels and metal-organic frameworks are investigated in catalysis, hydrogen storage, and electronics.\u00a0 Armstrong et al. report a novel metal-rich material, which with remarkable mechanical strength. This Rigid Amorphous Metal Rich (RAMETRIC) material is colloidal when hydrated.\u00a0 The colloids comprise silver-cysteine oligomers (blue), cross-linked by additional silver ions (orange).\u00a0 Upon dehydration, the material coalesces into the RAMETRIC phase; The sol-RAMETRIC transition is illustrated in the background. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
