Cordus
Cordus is a fictional material depicted in science fiction literature and media as a bio-organic polymer designed for neural interfacing and energy storage. In typical portrayals, Cordus forms a flexible, conductive network that can be grown biologically and processed into fibers, sheets, or thin coatings. Its described properties include high electrical conductivity, mechanical resilience, biocompatibility, and self-healing after minor damage. Proponents in the stories claim that Cordus combines energy density with tissue-like adaptability, enabling compact implants and durable wearable electronics.
Production is usually described as a fermentation-based process in which engineered microorganisms assemble polymer chains into
