Rise of the real Terminator: Scientists create shape-shifting liquid metal
- Scientists used an alloy of gallium and indium to create the liquid metal
- When the alloy was placed on a flat table, it formed into a spherical ball
- It surface tension was reduced by applying a small amount of electricity
- Changing the voltage allowed the metal to change shape and structure
Scientists have come a step closer to creating terrifying Terminator-style robots that can instantly repair themselves.
In what sounds like the precursor to a science fiction film, a Carolina research team has managed to create self-healing liquid metal.
The team claims the breakthrough could lead to better electronic circuits, self-repairing structures and perhaps, someday, T-1000-style robots.
Scientists used an alloy of gallium and indium to create the liquid metal. Gallium is liquid at 29°C (84°F), while Indium has a higher melting point of 156°C (312°F).
However, when combined, the alloy remains liquid at room temperature with a high surface tension of around 500 millinewtons per meter (mN/m).
This means that when this alloy is placed on a flat table, it will form into an almost perfect ball, and holds its shape.
The surface tension can be reduced by applying a voltage of less than one volt, causing the metal to spread out flat on the surface.
