Rancho Santa Margarita, California.  March 22nd 2010-- Liquidmetal® Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: LQMT) announces today that it has named Martin Weinstein, ScD, Vice Chairman of Board of Directors.

Previous to this appointment, Dr. Weinstein served as the chairman and chief executive officer of Sequa Corporation, New York, and chairman of Chromalloy Gas Turbine Corporation, San Antonio, Texas. Chromalloy Gas Turbine Corporation, with sales of approximately $1.3 billion and six thousand employees worldwide, is the world’s largest supplier of advanced metallurgical and manufacturing services to the global gas turbine and jet engine industry.

In December of 2008, Martin Weinstein retired as vice chairman and CEO of Sequa and chairman of Chromalloy Gas Turbine Corporation where he remains a senior consultant to the company. He is currently the founder/owner of Sheffield Scientific, a company formed to pursue developments in advanced materials and energy.

Dr. Weinstein received his ScD in metallurgy from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and in May of this year he will be awarded the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Davies Medal for Engineering Achievement.

Dr. Weinstein stated, “Liquidmetal Technologies, utilizing their amorphous metal technology, has great potential to develop significant advancements in industrial and consumer materials. I look forward to working with my talented colleagues who have developed this valuable and singular technology, and bringing my many years of experience in metallurgy to build and grow Liquidmetal Technologies.”

Abdi Mahamedi, Chairman of Liquidmetal Technologies, commented, “Dr. Weinstein has a long history of success and extensive experience as a renowned metallurgist.  We are excited to have an individual of Dr. Weinstein’s caliber and accomplishments join our Board.”
