what is a liquid metal?

Answer Posted / jasbeer

Despite the name they are not liquid, but quite solid at
room temperatures, and the maker claims they are hard
wearing and withstand thermal cycling.[1] Liquidmetal
alloys combine a number of desirable material features,
including high tensile strength, excellent corrosion
resistance, very high coefficient of restitution and
excellent anti-wearing characteristics, while also being
able to be heat-formed in processes similar to
thermoplastics.
e.g. Commercial alloy - A range of zirconium-based alloys
have been marketed under this trade name
