Phase Separated Proton Conducting Membranes for Solar Fuels Generators, Topic 18b
SBC: NANOSONIC INC. Topic: C5318b"The Department of Energy’s Office of Basic Energy Sciences has identified a need for new ion conducting membranes for solar fuel generator applications. Specifically, development of phase separated membranes with good proton conductivity at ambient temperatures, very low gas (fuel) diffusion/permeability, and selective ionic transport is required. Currently there are no commercially available p ...

23b Recyclable Polyesters Made from CO2
SBC: LOOP CO2, INC. Topic: C5423bStatement of Problem The global scale of plastics production (reaching 367 million metric tons in 2020) has led to enormous negative impacts on our environment through carbon emissions and environmental pollution. For example, 75% of the disposed plastic ends up being landfilled while only 9% is recycled, leading to a significant amount that ends up in our environment. Thus, there is a pressing ne ...

Additive Manufacturing of Sesquioxide Ceramic Thin-Disk Gain Media with a Tailored Dopant Profile for Short-Pulse, High Average Power Lasers
SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. Topic: C5431bThe laser-based electron accelerator is an innovative tool to obtain GeV to TeV electron energies for high-energy particle physics experiments. The development of high-power laser systems for these accelerators, however, puts stringent challenges on the very limits of the laser materials themselves. The enormous heat generated by the high power creates great thermal stress that leads to effects su ...

Green Composites from Carbonated Bio-based Oils and Recycled Nanofibers
SBC: LUNA LABS USA LLC Topic: C5414cThe U.S. transportation system depends on vehicles to move people and products. The majority of U.S. vehicles rely on petroleum products as the primary energy source (e.g. gasoline and diesel), and are material-, energy- and emissions-intensive in their manufacturing and use. Increased adoption of clean energy technologies based on energy storage, electrification, alternative fuels and lightweight ...
