  2. Fire Retardant Nylon Yarn

    SBC: LUNA INNOVATIONS INCORPORATED            Topic: A17075

    Current Army Combat Uniforms (ACU) fabricated with 50:50 nylon:cotton (NYCO) blends are relatively inexpensive with the drawback of being extremely flammable. For selected duty missions necessitating flame resistance (FR), the military currently supplies an FR-ACU that utilizes flame resistant polyaramid fabrics. There are several issues with these fabrics: i) they are expensive ($25-30/yard), ii) ...

  3. Deep Eutectic Solvent (DES)-based Electrolytes for Nanomaterials-based Supercapacitors

    SBC: LYNNTECH INC.            Topic: A17014

    The theoretical energy and power of supercapacitors is determined by their capacitance, working voltage window, and conductivities of electrode materials/electrolytes as a function of temperature. With recent advances in nanomaterials-based electrodes, the performance of supercapacitors is mainly limited by the electrolytes. Current supercapacitors use flammable organic electrolytes that are un-sa ...

  6. Autonomous Navigation on Icy Moons and Ocean Worlds

    SBC: VETH RESEARCH ASSOCIATES, LLC            Topic: T4

    Technology currently used for terrestrial navigation is extremely limited in the challenging environments on icy moons and ocean worlds such as Europa. Autonomous platforms used to collect data from beneath these ice and ocean surfaces cannot depend on access to satellite or any other electromagnetic communication. Autonomous systems in these environments are required to perform highly-complex tas ...

  7. Nanoporous Carbon Nitride Photocatalyst Based Water Recovery System

    SBC: CERTAINTECH INC            Topic: T6

    Water recovery from wastewater sources is key to long duration human exploration missions. Without substantial water recovery, life support system launch weights are practically impossible. Water recovery systems currently used on the international space station (ISS) are complex, involving high temperature and pressures to recycle water from humidity condensate and urine.nbsp; The process also us ...

  8. Metal-Organic Framework-Sensitized ChemFET Sensors for Spacecraft Water Monitoring Systems

    SBC: NANOSONIC INC.            Topic: T6

    The objective of this STTR research effort is to demonstrate the use of select metal-organic framework (MOF) constructs as active, multi-analyte sensing element in spacecraft water monitoring systems. MOFs are extended one, two, and three-dimensional coordination networks with uniform porosity and large surface area. The rational selection of both the metal cluster nodes and multi-dentate linkers ...

  9. Metagrating Beam Shaping Optics

    SBC: NANOHMICS INC            Topic: T8

    Metamaterial optics provide dramatic reductions in size and weight compared with traditional refractive optics. Nanohmics, Inc., and Andrea Alugrave;rsquo;s group at the City University of New York propose to develop ultrathin, light-weight, high-transmittance optics based on microfabricated gradient metagratings. A metagrating is an array of polarizable metamaterial particles with a period compar ...

  10. Vortex Control for Low-Noise DEP Urban Aircraft

    SBC: Surfplasma, Inc.            Topic: T15

    Suppression of noise from aircraft is a vital NASA goal, especially important for the vision of Urban Air Mobility. Small urban aircraft may utilize Distributed Electric Propulsion along with advanced structural and electric motor/storage technologies to achieve the necessary flight capability. However, these aircraft utilize propellers or fans to achieve the necessary thrust, with attendant commu ...
