Sounds interesting, but what is it for?

If it is used as a weapon, and say, we vaporize a tank, then where does the vaporized metal go? I am sure it is unhealthy to breathe, and several tons of vaporized hot metal is not all that environmentally friendly, is it?

HUH?
you and I saw 2 different videos
I saw a new tech which will use less resources to make and is a good deal more energy effecent.
it`s alittle dry in presentation .

I didn't see the one you are mentioning XO.

I don't go there every day so I miss their latest report sometimes.

Vaporised meatal has a lot of use tho , that is the way some very fine mirrors get silvered.

I just watched the one about plasma vaporisation of meatals.

The purpose is to produce transformers and electric generators and motors and other inductive components with improved effeciency and novel caricteristics.

The new materiel produced operates with less Hysteresis losses due to its fine grain and lack of crystal structure.

Very fine powders also enable the experimentation with Ferro fluids , am means of generation or driveing in which the moveing parts are oils that are full of microscopic meatal particles , experiments like this are very interesting to me.

If this work results in better transformers and motors it will conserve a lot of energy .

It seems to me that vaporizing metals is not exactly a boon to efficient devices that are made of metal.
If every day you have a little less metal on your device, eventually it will nto perform at all."

I will try to find one of the experiments in conductive plastic.

But the stuff they are produceing is still meatal but instead of haveing a grain structure it has a glass like nature because it was cooled to rapidly to crystalise. Inductors and transformers and motors made of this can be more effecient and lighter even though the basic elements are not diffrent.

 Hysteresis is the problem this reduces , if they are successfull they may make almost all electricity generaton and use 2% more effecient.
