The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Developing a blood fatty acid-based algorithm as an early predictor of insulin resistance: Applying machine learning to harmonized data from prospective cohort studies

    SBC: OMEGAQUANT ANALYTICS, LLC.            Topic: 200

    Project Summary Metabolic diseases, such as Metabolic Syndrome (MetSyn) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) affect ~37% and ~10% of Americans, respectively, with a substantial impact on the health, quality of life and financial security of these individuals. Without the means to identify high risk individuals conveniently and cheaply, many will find care too little and too late: more than 80% of individual ...

  2. WaterMaker Solar: Solar-Powered Water Filtration to Enable Air Base Water Resiliency

    SBC: GENPRO ENERGY SOLUTIONS, LLC            Topic: X224ODCSO1

    Water resiliency is a Department of the Air Force (DAF)-wide strategy priority. Bases have Water Dashboards to track water vulnerabilities. The 2021 DAF Energy Resiliency specifically focuses on water resiliency. Though the DAF has historically focused on electrical energy assurance, it is increasingly recognizing the need to consider how water provides critical mission support. This new focus has ...

  3. Novel Nano Grease Significantly Enhances Lubrication, Thermal, and Electrical Performance, for Mechanical Equipment, Computers, and Electronic Devices.

    SBC: H. F. WEBSTER ENGINEERING SERVICES, INC.            Topic: AFX20DTCSO1

    The unexpected improvement in thermal conductivity of thermal grease has been further developed and improved upon.  The objective of this program is to develop and commercialize a grease that will increase device and equipment performance by better matching grease properties with the application. It was found that the most value can be provided through the development of a thermal grease for avio ...

  4. Novel Nano Grease Significantly Enhances Lubrication, Thermal, and Electrical Performance, for Mechanical Equipment, Computers, and Electronic Devices

    SBC: H. F. WEBSTER ENGINEERING SERVICES, INC.            Topic: AFX20DTCSO1

    Grease is found in a variety of applications ranging from electronics to general mechanical equipment as well as vehicles.  These greases are designed to serve a specific purpose.  Carbon and other nanomaterials, when matched to based oils based upon their chemistry can lead to a dramatic performance in many of these applications.  A key part of our innovation and intellectual property that mak ...

  5. Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Engine Optimization

    SBC: NANOCOATINGS INC            Topic: AF20CTCSO1

    NanoCoatings, Inc. (NCI) and our non-profit team member, Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), propose a complete in-cylinder engine enhancement for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) multi-fuel engines.  NCI will demonstrate a novel high-voltage anodize process, termed Plasma-Electrolytic-Oxidation (PEO) with specific solid-lubricant nanoparticle additives (e.g., graphite or MoS2), on cast-Al alloy ...

  6. Low Distortion Repair of Thin Superalloy Components

    SBC: VRC Metal Systems, LLC            Topic: AF191100

    Thin walled nickel alloys in exhaust sections of USAF propulsion systems are prone to cracking. Traditional repairs result in distortion and require post heat treatment. Needed is a method of repair that eliminates distortion and is mechanically, microstructurally, and chemically stable in engine exhaust environments. VRC Metal Systems (VRC) and the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology (SDS ...

  7. Open Call for Science and Technology Created by Early-Stage (e.g. University) Teams

    SBC: H. F. WEBSTER ENGINEERING SERVICES, INC.            Topic: AF19CT010

    Sate of the art aircraft composite and coating technology are not electrically conductive and may allow for a dangerous electrical charge buildup and may fail to protect from lightning strikes. Current epoxy composites used in aircraft such as the V-22 Osprey require a metal mesh to be embedded in the composite. This mesh makes repairs very difficult. Other solutions such as metallic nanoparticles ...

  8. Open Call for Science and Technology Created by Early-Stage (e.g. University) Teams

    SBC: VRC Metal Systems, LLC            Topic: AF19CT010

    There are two main objectives that this proposal addresses. The first is to determine the alloy compound ratio, such as Si, Al, Fe, Sn, Mn etc. at what ratio our alloy provides the best performance to cost benefit for the Air Force. We will partner with the Air Force to perform anode testing to determine if the concept works. The anode will also be tested at SDSM&T for capacity and number of circl ...

  9. Conductive coatings eliminate static discharge risk on aircraft

    SBC: H. F. WEBSTER ENGINEERING SERVICES, INC.            Topic: AF19CT010

    Electrically insulating aircraft materials and coatings increase the likelihood of dangerous charge buildup due to static electricity accumulation and are also not able to protect from lightning strikes.  Aircraft performance is critical for the proper support and maintenance of aircraft. We will eliminate the need for a separate coating, by producing an electrically conductive rain erosion resis ...

  10. Fabricate novel anode based on Si alloy for Li-ion battery using cold spray technique

    SBC: VRC Metal Systems, LLC            Topic: AF19CT010

    A Si-based alloy anode for rechargeable Li-ion batteries will be created using “cold spray”, a solid-state materials deposition technique. In this process inert driver gas is used to accelerate powdered feedstock particles to supersonic speeds. No melting occurs, instead deposits form as a result of severe deformation. This allows deposition of Si, a material prone to oxidation otherwise. Init ...
