T-1000, played by the actor Robert Patrick in the male appearance it assumed throughout most of the movie, was an extremely advanced Terminator made of a liquid mimetic polyalloy. It was able to morph its liquid metal form to impersonate people and objects in order to get closer to its target.

Technical specs

The T-1000 was capable of perfectly emulating the shape, color, and texture of anything that it touched, provided that the object being emulated was of similar size and mass. The T-1000 (or pieces of it) seemed to be able to perfectly match the color and texture (but not shape or size) of things larger or smaller than itself. Combined, the pieces of the T-1000 were very capable, but separated pieces of mimetic alloy seemed to be programmed to rejoin the main T-1000 mass instead of attacking on their own. Separated or damaged mimetic alloy became glitchy (partial melding with metal objects) after it was frozen in one instance.

The T-1000 was capable of altering its molecular state between solid and liquid at will. The T-1000 preferred to use its body as a primary weapon. Although it could not form "complex machines" because "guns and explosives have chemicals, moving parts," it could "form solid metal shapes knives and stabbing weapons." Any advanced weapons that the T-1000 decided to use (such as handguns) were acquired instead of simply being fabricated.

When damaged on the physical level, the T-1000 was capable of reforming itself in seconds. Projectile weapons such as firearms could stun the T-1000, but only for a few seconds. Bullets and other solid projectiles seemed to pass through the mimetic polyalloy without cracking it (leaving nothing more than a splash of metal that quickly healed itself), except when the mimetic alloy was frozen or otherwise incapacitated. In such a state, the T-1000 became brittle and was easily shattered. After being completely dismembered, the mimetic polyalloy automatically sought itself out and rejoined into the full T-1000, but the metal needed to be thawed out to become a liquid once more to reform.

The T-1000 was difficult to destroy, since it was seemingly immune to all forms of damage. However, the T-1000 could be destroyed or rendered inoperative. Mostly this was to be done by damaging it on the molecular level which is why ballistic weapons and physical attacks had little effect. Extreme cold could damage a T-1000 at the molecular level and cause it to lose some control over its emulation functions, but it would not permanently stop it. The T-1000 could apparently endure much heat such as that of a typical diesel fire without damage, but could not withstand being in contact with molten metal.
