Europe Embraces US Breakthrough Technology

    ALEXANDRIA, Va.--Jan. 17, 2002--The European Union has singled out only one nameplate technology as a priority for its multi-billion dollar, five-year materials research program (2002-2006). That technology, Reflexive Materials Technologies(TM) (RMT(TM)), was invented in the United States and is a proprietary technology of UniStates, LLC.
    In its report to the European Commission, the Max Planck Institute named several generic areas of research and one specific breakthrough technology, RMT, as "research priorities for Europe." The Institute, named for the father of quantum theory and the man who inspired Albert Einstein to develop the theory of relativity, is Germany's most prestigious scientific organization. Its newly released European White Book on Fundamental Research in Materials Science is, according to the Institute, "an assessment of basic research in materials science worldwide."
    Charles R. Owens, UniStates' CEO, said: "The Institute's Directors were first attracted to RMT because, in their view, RMT is the basis for a new and completely different approach to materials research that is likely to produce better results." The Institute's report on materials science starts with the premise that "much research has been done that has not brought a lot." Thus, the goal of the White Book is to present a different approach to research with greater potential for success.
    In the European Materials White Book, the Institute emphasizes the importance of RMT to the transportation industry, saying: "The main aim is to create lighter, stronger, and cheaper materials for use in mass transportation systems (ships, aircraft, cars, trains)." The Institute invited the UniStates' team of Charles R. and Wendy E. Owens to contribute an article to the White Book entitled Materials for Transportation, in which they report: "The breakthrough in materials performance enabled by RMT could drive extraordinary advances in transportation and other weight-sensitive industries."
    The Institute's Directors complimented the Owens' article, saying it "contains excellent ideas, on which future basic materials research could be based." The father-daughter team also contributed substantially to the European Materials White Book's "Conclusions and Recommendations" at the request of the Institute. Charles Owens, the inventor of RMT, commented on the Institute's White Book saying: "We are very grateful to the Institute for featuring RMT. Their doing so is another in a continuing stream of endorsements for the benefits that RMT offers in hundreds of different applications."
    RMT is a new, lower-cost way to make better products of all kinds from automobile components to human replacement parts. UniStates is developing applications for RMT for cars, planes, buildings, bridges, ships, shields, computers, toasters, and even replacement parts for human bodies, to name only a few. UniStates' rapid manufacturing technologies are for producing superior products made with all types of materials, including metals, plastics, ceramics, composites, and biomaterials. RMT is readily installed in existing factories with modest capital investment. UniStates will begin licensing RMT later this month.
    The RMT advantage is simple and compelling. RMT-made products perform better and cost less. Products are lighter, stronger, stiffer, tougher, and safer. RMT products are particularly advantageous where lighter weight, superior strength, greater durability, and affordability are important.
