Fashion and Lifestyle

  • Amorphous metals are ideal for fashion and lifestyle applications like bezels, watch cases, rings, and decorative elements due to their intricate shaping and superior precision.
 
  • They offer a smooth surface finish and sleek, modern look, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of fashion accessories.
 
  • Amorphous metals combine high strength, hardness, and superior resistance to corrosion and wear, making them scratch, tarnish, and rust-resistant compared to stainless steel or titanium.
 
  • Their extreme elasticity and resilience make them perfect for energy-storing applications, such as springs and compliant mechanisms, with minimal mechanical losses.
