Further recent developments have greatly enhanced the properties of PMG and the new material is known as Hypercrete. Due to its intrinsically inert chemical, plastic and thermal properties, Hypercrete can be utilised in defence and security applications when combined with various additives and reinforcements, to afford protection against nuclear, chemical and biological gas threats, as well as offering blast and ballistics resistance

Electromagnetic screening & Radiation Protection

Hypercrete in a special formulation exhibits very useful radiation adsorption properties which offers a lighter and more cost-effective alternative to conventional materials such as lead, for protection applications in Hospital X-ray rooms or Air-Raid shelters. Suitably modifies it can be used as an electromagnetic pulse protection material (EMPP) for civil and military applications.
