NASA's Technology Transfer Program solicits inquiries from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture and market the following technology. License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use. NASA provides no funding in conjunction with these potential licenses.
THE TECHNOLOGY:
Innovators at NASA's Glenn Research Center have developed a novel method for making oxide coatings that have excellent mechanical strength and electronic conductivity at room temperature. Using the Plasma Spray-Physical Vapor Deposition (PS-PVD) processing methodology, Glenn researchers have been able to produce a coating containing a metastable phase that no other method can achieve. Upon exposing the material to moderate temperatures (greater than 300°C) in the presence of oxygen, the metastable phase is further oxidized, and the material becomes insulating while retaining its high toughness and microstructure. With this innovation, a coating can be created from any metal oxide, including rare earth oxides, zirconium oxide, hafnium oxide, titanium oxide, or any combination of two or more oxides. Glenn's innovation has great potential for industries that require increasingly tough ceramic coatings, such as electronics, chemical and petroleum refineries, the aerospace industry, and automotive and aeronautics manufacturing.
To express interest in this opportunity, please submit a license application through NASA's Automated Technology Licensing Application System (ATLAS) by visiting https://technology.nasa.gov/apply/license/LEW-TOPS-132
If you have any questions, please contact NASA Glenn's Technology Transfer Office at grc-techtransfer@mail.nasa.gov with the title of this Technology Transfer Opportunity as listed in this FBO notice and your preferred contact information. For more information about licensing other NASA-developed technologies, please visit the NASA Technology Transfer Portal at https://technology.nasa.gov/
These responses are provided to members of NASA's Technology Transfer Program for the purpose of promoting public awareness of NASA-developed technology products, and conducting preliminary market research to determine public interest in and potential for future licensing opportunities. No follow-on procurement is expected to result from responses to this Notice.
