Title:
Recovery Act - Scale-Up of Nanopowder Manufacturing Via Cost-Effective, Low Carbon-Footprint Process
Summary:
Ceramic, metal, and metal ceramic composite materials of composed of nano-scale grain sizes are useful in a number of energy technologies, such as lithium ion batteries and fuel cell components. nGimat developed a successful methodology for producing large quantities of useful nano-size grain materials ("nanomaterials") based on a plasma spray that does not require the use of solvents or other chemicals to produce the nanomaterials. nGimat is working in collaboration with a number of US manufacturers to develop and commercialize the new nanomaterials production technology.
