Materion’s Historical Landmark Dedication Dignitaries, employees, and guests gathered on September 12 at Materion Corp.’s Elmore, Ohio, plant for a dedication ceremony celebrating the location’s status as a 2018 ASM International Historical Landmark. Keith J. Smith, vice president of Nuclear, Science and Government Affairs, was the master of ceremony. ASM President Zi-Kui Liu, FASM, assisted with the festivities. Also on hand were State of Ohio Representative D.J. Swearingen, Jr., and State of Ohio Senator Theresa Gavarone. The plaque was show- cased in a unique setting, mounted on rhyolite excavated from a mine near Materion’s Delta, Utah, plant. Dr. Liu’s travels brought him in touch with Materion again when he recently visited the James Webb Space Telescope at Northrop Grumman in Los Angeles, which fea- tures mirrors made with Materion beryllium. In fact, Mate- rion developed a new grade of beryllium especially for the unique mirrors. The new telescope, set to launch in 2021, will have 100 times more power than the Hubble. Materion provided 18 hexagonal berylliummirrors for the James Webb Space Telescope. Courtesy of NASA.
