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. Improved Carbon-Carbon for Hypersonic Vehicles

    SBC: MATERIALS RESEARCH & DESIGN INC            Topic: MDA13025

    A recent flight test of a hypersonic vehicle resulted in failure that was traced to thermostructural damage in the carbon-carbon aeroshell. When the vehicle was exposed to peak thermal gradients, interlaminar shear stresses were created that caused external plies to delaminate. The structural failures caused aerodynamic disturbances that led to vehicle instability. The program proposed here seeks ...

  2. Multimodal Acoustic Tool for Inline Pipe Inspection

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: 180PH1

    The United States has a vast network of pipelines used for fuel transport. This infrastructure, installed in 1950–1970, is one of the largest in the world. Yet poor/missing records of the materials used, combined with the overall age and associated environmental degradation effects, often results in unsafe operation. Current non-destructive inspection techniques are only capable of detecting mat ...

  3. Control Electronics for Space-Qualified Cryogenic Coolers

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: MDA17T003

    Future space missions will utilize small spacecraft with advanced sensor systems. Cooling of these sensors is required to decrease noise and increase sensitivity by maintaining the detector at a reduced operating temperature. The cooling system comprises a mechanical cryocooler and its control electronics, both of which are critical technologies to enable future missions. Creare proposes to develo ...

  6. Contamination-Free, Lightweight, Helium-Rubidium Vapor Circulator for DPAL Systems

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: MDA12018

    Diode-Pumped Alkali Laser (DPAL) systems have great potential for missile defense and other applications. These systems require a uniform, steady, flowing mixture of helium and rubidium vapor at elevated pressure and temperature. Significant challenges exist because rubidium is a very reactive material. Our team has developed a contamination-free, hermetic circulator based on gas-bearing turbomach ...

  7. Methodologies for Cost-Effective Measurement of Dynamic Material Properties for Carbon-Carbon Composites

    SBC: MENTIS SCIENCES INC            Topic: MDA18010

    To meet MDA’s need for cost effective dynamic material evaluation techniques, Mentis Sciences Inc. proposes to modify a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) apparatus to achieve and gather dynamic material response data at strain rates above 107s-1 and at temperatures up to and exceeding 1000°C to provide data for first-principles hydro-codes modeling in a laboratory environment. The focus in Ph ...

  8. Methodologies for Cost-Effective Measurement of Dynamic Material Properties for Carbon-Carbon Composites- P4426

    SBC: MATERIALS SCIENCES LLC            Topic: MDA18010

    Next generation high-speed missile defense systems [1] require advanced thermal protection systems (TPS) to meet performance objectives, cf. Figure 1. The development of these advanced systems requires the continued research of materials that have a TPS pedigree, i.e., carbon-carbon (C-C) composites. In particular, data is needed to support hydro-code modeling and analysis of structural responses ...

  10. Reactive Nanocomposite Materials for Enhanced Lethality Kinetic Warheads

    SBC: REACTIVE METALS INTERNATIONAL, INC.            Topic: MDA15004

    This effort is aimed to increase lethality of kinetic energy warheads by developing metal-based materials with densities in the range of 1-10g/cm3, burning with temperatures in excess of 4000K, generating chemical energy reaching 2kcal/g, while releasing the energy with 10-500us upon impact initiation.
