    Iron in a glass which is 3D printable, for making electric
    motor components. Retains magnetic properties but with lower
    electromagnetic hysteresis losses and improved heat insulation.

    short answer = possibly more efficient electric motors.

    IrCOm told that been quite a improvement from the drone manufacturers with
    much better power/weight IrCOm told that DJI E bikes are quite a bit more powerful for a given size weight than the mainstream manufacturers.

    Hence Silca and their electric pump was saying that to get a motor that
    size with that specifications wasnrCOt possible using US suppliers at this point in time.

    I would think that iron glass wiuld not magnetize as stromgly probably forcing you to use more power. This solunds like someome's thesis rather than a research project.

    I?m told that been quite a improvement from the drone manufacturers with
    much better power/weight I?m told that DJI E bikes are quite a bit more powerful for a given size weight than the mainstream manufacturers.

    Why would you think that? "which atoms are disordered rather than organized in a crystal lattice." Think what that means.
