Exotic Materials are metals that have high strength and hardness. It does not mean any metal that is rare, but rather strong in its characteristics. Exotic Materials are used for high performance tasks.
Exotic Materials can include plastics, superalloys, semiconductors, superconductors, and ceramics.
Examples of metals and alloys that can be exotic:
Materials with high alloy content, known as super alloys or exotic alloys, offer enhanced performance properties including excellent strength and durability, and resistance to oxidation, corrosion and deforming at high temperatures or under extreme pressure. Because of these properties, super alloys make the best spring materials for demanding working conditions, which can be encountered across various industry sectors, including the automotive, marine and aerospace sectors as well as oil and gas extraction, thermal processing, petrochemical processing and power generation.
