Chapter 152: High Purity Rare Metals

The Six Shields of National Defense is a set of professional organizations consisting of six departments established by the state's top level after listening to the opinions of several strategic experts in response to the various non-traditional threats faced by the country.

In response to the threat of terrorism and separatism, the Dragon Shield Bureau integrates intelligence departments on all fronts, collects and analyzes intelligence, and coordinates the fight against terrorists. And the establishment of six rapid reaction forces, referred to as the dragon group.

The Sky Shield Bureau, which is in charge of national air defense security, identifies all kinds of UFOs and identifies some threatening targets, such as stealth aircraft, small unmanned aerial vehicles, satellites in space, etc., and has an air flight unit, dozens of fighters, helicopters, and unmanned aerial vehicles.

The Shield Bureau, in response to the threats of biochemical crisis, environmental pollution, genetic change, etc., prevents the hostile countries of country H from carrying out biochemical warfare and genetic warfare against our country, has certain research on microorganisms, viruses, chemical and genetic weapons, always pays attention to the fluctuating changes in the national body, and always remains vigilant.

Blue Shield Bureau, to deal with maritime threats.

Cyber Shield Bureau, to deal with cyber threats.

In addition to ensuring the safety of the country's nuclear arsenal, the Nuclear Shield Bureau has conducted in-depth research on the situations that may be faced after a nuclear war explodes, such as how human beings survive in a nuclear radiation environment during the nuclear winter, and has achieved certain results.

In addition, there are some affiliated scientific research institutions of the National Defense Six Shields, such as the Mecha Research Institute, the Information Engineering Research Institute, the Materials Research Institute, the Future Weapons Research Institute, the Unmanned Systems Research Institute, the Biological Research Institute, the Nuclear Energy Research Institute, and so on, with thousands of researchers.

Food, electricity, weapons and equipment in the base. Many of them are in this base 3oo meters underground, solving and producing by themselves. For example, the nuclear power department was established 4o years ago, when this base was first built, and controlled the power supply of the entire power center of the base......

……

After a lively lunch with a group of experts, a group of experts is about to fight again.

"Little comrade. Go to me and see how it is, I'm Director Ouyang of the Mecha Research Institute, I have a few mecha that are about to be made, I'll take you to see it. ”

"Go to me, our weapons research institute, there are several conceptual weapons made, do you want to go and see it?"

"Unmanned Systems Research Institute, there are a few intelligent machines that have been made, do you want to take a look?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The scene became more and more chaotic, and Tianming didn't know who to listen to. I had to shout loudly: "Don't make any noise, if you quarrel again, go back to my room and sleep." ”

Secretary He stood up and said to the generals first: "You soldiers in military uniforms don't join in the fun, go back to deal with the affairs of various departments first, except for Director Song of the Materials Institute, the experts from other institutes also go back first, and we will talk to the little comrades." ”

The generals have all returned to their posts with interest, and although they are curious, they can't follow the Adeptus all day. A dozen experts though reluctantly. But think about it carefully: materials are the foundation of all disciplines, and if there is a breakthrough in materials, it is inevitable that other disciplines will make breakthroughs. Experts have to admire Secretary He's vision of things. Grasp the essence of things at once.

……

The three of them returned to the materials research institute, and Director Song asked the warehouse keeper to open the material warehouse, revealing the various materials placed on the shelves inside.

There are thousands of different kinds of materials. The large ones weigh more than a ton, and the small ones are only the size of a fingernail, and there are metal materials, alloy materials, organic materials, inorganic materials, and nanomaterials...... The categories are complete. The whole nine yards.

Director Song asked people to move a bunch of metal strips over, pointed to this pile of materials and said to Tianming: "Little comrade, it's just a high-purity titanium alloy produced by one of our factories, about 5o kilograms, with a purity of 99.98%, this kind of pure titanium metal. When we can't produce it, the import price is 12o thousand per ton, and it will increase every year......

However, in some precision equipment accessories, this precision of titanium is not enough, the motor blades of the F22 fighter of the United States are made of high-purity titanium alloy with a purity of 6 9s......"

After Director Song finished his introduction, he paused, looked at Tianming and said, "Little comrade, what I want to ask is, can your ability to raise this 5o kilogram of high-purity titanium alloy to a higher level?" ”

Facing the eager eyes of Director Song and Secretary He, Tianming nodded lightly: "It should be no problem." ”

After speaking, Tianming put 5o kilograms of titanium metal strips into the ability space and began to purify them.

As for the purification of substances, Tianming has not tried much before, but he has decomposed a lot. How are the atoms inside matter arranged? How do you combine molecular chemical bonds? He had observed that the atomic structure of a single substance was layered by the gravitational pull between the atoms. Since the active electrons in the outer shell of metal atoms are easy to be free, there will be a lot of flowing electrons between the atoms. These electrons are called 'weak electrons' in physics.

Under the action of weak electrons, the atoms inside the metal are firmly bonded, resulting in the relatively tough and strong characteristics of the metal.

The focus of Tianming's research is, of course, not on weak electrons, but on removing impurities inside metals and purifying metals.

The inside of the 5o kilogram of titanium metal in front of him, under the glance of Tianming's divine sense, there are really a lot of impurities, densely distributed in all corners. He tried to get some of the impurities out, but in the end he had to stop the operation because there were too many impurities, but the content was too low, just like fishing all the fish in a big sea, he had to determine where the 'fish' were before he could catch all the different kinds of fish.

The amount of work that is laborious and purified can be described as astronomical units.

However, Tianming thought of a better way: that is, to pump out all the water, and leave the fish alone.

Under the action of the special force field he created, all the titanium atoms were gathered together like iron filings adsorbed by a magnet. Other impurities, on the other hand, are not affected by this force field and stay where they are.

Purification completed: 49.772kg of titanium, o.2o8kg of impurities, and 2kg of volatile matter.

Tianming took out a whole piece of titanium alloy and put it on the ground. The titanium surface with a purity of almost 1oo% is shiny and the color is pure silvery-white. Probably because it was so pure, the color of the metal quickly changed to a faint silvery-gray color after being exposed to the air for a few seconds.

Hold the gray impurity ball in your hand and play with it. Tianming said disdainfully: "That titanium alloy is not very pure, 99.97%, the country's industrial level needs to be improved." ”

"Little comrade, what kind of process have you refined this piece of titanium metal to?"

"1oo%, it can't be any lower."

Director Song stammered, "No... It's impossible, it's only been 1o minutes and it's been less than ......."

"You have people test it."

"What are you still doing, quickly test the purity of this metal!" Director Song asked the two inspectors standing next to him to quickly bring the metal measuring instrument.

Drip! The tester rang and showed a blinding number jΓΉ: 1oo.oooooo.

"Impossible! There is no such thing as absolute purity! One of the inspectors shouted with his mouth wide open and his face full of disbelief.

"Maybe the machine is broken. I'm going to get a different purity tester. ”

Another inspector quickly ran to the real room, quickly changed a tester, and measured the titanium metal several times, until the third time I measured the inaccurate number 99.999999. There is no way, the number measured by the metal measuring instrument can only be accurate to six decimal places.

"It's not true, both machines may be broken." One of the inspectors muttered like Xianglin's sister-in-law.

"Nothing is impossible! Why don't you move this alloy to the real room for physical property testing! Director Song yelled at the two inspectors who were still stunned.

"Yes, yes!"

In less than half an hour, the two reports were in the hands of Director Song and Secretary He.

Song Yuanxing said silently: "Excellent conductivity. The hardness is close to diamond, and the toughness is extremely strong! Achieve or exceed theoretical physical properties...... I didn't expect that 100% pure titanium metal has such good physical properties, if it is made into a motor blade......"

I don't want to. I didn't want to think about it, and after saying hello to Tianming, Director Song, who was already trembling with excitement, immediately asked people to send the materials to the material processing department, listing a few things that needed to be processed. Such as key load-bearing components, motor blades, etc., and point out by name that a few masters with the best skills will come out and make what he wants immediately!

"Little comrade. There are also some metal materials here, you can help me refine them. ”

After a while, Director Song asked people to bring more than ten kinds of metal materials over and put them in front of Tianming.

"And?"

Tianming is a little unhappy, don't you want to treat me as a coolie, and purify the metal for you every day? Isn't it, but he saw that there were thousands of tons of metal in that huge material warehouse, all of which had to be purified?

No, no, I'm not here to sell coolies, and I didn't sleep at noon today.

"Little comrade, these metals are tungsten, vanadium, zirconium, tantalum, niobium, lithium, and beryllium...... Each one weighs about 1kg and has good physical characteristics, can you trouble you again and purify it all? ”

Song Yuanxing whispered flattery, for fear that the word 'no' would pop out of Tianming's mouth.

"That's so much, I can go back and rest when I'm done, and I won't do it any more."

"Yes, yes!"

It took half an hour to purify all the metal materials, and under the pretext of being a little tired, Tianming, escorted by a military truck and two soldiers called by Secretary He, returned to room C1-138O.

……

After the physical properties of more than ten other purified high-purity rare metals were tested, He Xi took more than ten test reports and made many copies of them, and held a temporary emergency meeting.

After Commander Xu Guoyuan and Commander Xu arrived, he first looked at the material report, and then listened to the report of Secretary He Xi and Director Song Yuanxing. However, the old general suppressed it very well, and in the midst of the excited buzzing and non-stop discussions, he seemed calm and calm, with a kind of leadership style.

The old general concluded: "For the supernatural, there are only three things I have to do now! ”

"First, to meet his requirements as much as possible, no matter whether it is accommodation, food, transportation, entertainment, all according to the standard of no upper limit, whatever conditions he proposes, we will provide him with whatever conditions!"

"Second, protect his safety as much as possible, his side, someone must protect him at all times, and it is strictly forbidden for any stranger to approach him! If there is a possibility of endangering the personal safety of the alien, the security guards have the right to kill on the spot! ”

"Third, let him make greater contributions to the country as much as possible, that is, increase his working hours, let him complete more tasks, today Comrade Yuanxing let him purify more than 6o kg of metal materials, very good, but far from enough! We need to mobilize his enthusiasm......" (to be continued......
