I can totally see Ward's point in wanting to keep his invention his and I hope he does. The flip side is that it'll be one company/govt. organisation that'll hopefully get exclusive rights to this product and market it and get it out there. Money aside, if this is a real product, it needs to see the light of day.
To add a bit of science to this, would a plastic that can withstand extreme temperatures also have a decent tensile strength or would it be brittle. I have worked with ceramics that they line the inside of coal shoots with do prevent the metal wearing away. This ceramic is extremely hard and can withstand really high temps, but hit it with a hammer and it shatters. Could this be the same as this plastic. This would then limit what the plastic could be used for. Still an overwhelming amount of heat protective uses, but limited on structural uses.
