Technically, the materials are all ELEMENTS. Perhaps we've forgotten our basic chemistry, but these are the only compounds you get given a certain number of protons, electrons, and neutrons. There are no "alien materials." Any element beyond what is seen on the periodic table is radioactive and unstable. Also, the blueprints which use these elemental components presumably existed before you crash at the beginning of the game. Even the explicitly alien items in the game are regular, universal materials made of the same elements that every galaxy is made of, oriented to create some piece of alien tech.
