Researchers strain to improve electrical material and it's worth it

Strain in these materials can alter their properties and improve
their performance. A lot of research in ferroelectric materials has
focused on making strained thin films with alternating layers only a
few nanometers thick of materials with slightly different crystal
structures.

"It turns out that if you put pressure on certain types of materials,
the properties completely change," Martin said. "In our case we
administer pressure by straining or stretching thin versions of these
materials like one would stretch plastic wrap to fit on a bowl. You
can induce things that don't exist at ambient conditions; you can
make phases and properties that don't exist."

Meanwhile, steel is creeping into cheap CHINESE electrical products
(electronic products, wiring, cables) because copper has gotten too
expensive. AVOID this stuff like the PLAGUE unless you like
electrical fires.

Adding thorium makes steel almost as good as low grade or poorly
recycled copper.

There are some enormous zinc and copper deposits yet to be tapped.
Once the oligarchs get their market price of copper as insider
speculated over $10/kg, the global supply should start to pick right
up. Ideally $100/kg would make the Rothschilds quite happy.

Apparently global inflation and proxy wars are a very good thing.

The moon and Venus together should have a teratonne of gold to spare,
as well as teratonnes of other valuable elements such as copper.
