Laminanium
this was the first of the truly "regenerative," self-healing armors developed during the early decades of the New Republic. First used to protect the YVH 1 series of combat droids, laminanium could absorb large amounts of incoming projectile or magma fire, before restoring itself to its original protective level in after a short time. This healing process required an auxiliary power pack in the droid's superstructure, as well as a stored laminanium ingot from which to "feed" the regeneration process. It was formed by alternating layers of molytex and quantum fiber.
