TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER OPPORTUNITY: Processable Polyimides Containing APB and Reactive End Caps (LAR-TOPS-211)

NASA's Technology Transfer Program solicits inquiries from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture and market the following technology. License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use. NASA provides no funding in conjunction with these potential licenses . THE TECHNOLOGY: Polyimides are the most popular high performance polymer because they provide a unique combination of mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties. Homopolymers that contain only other diamines and dianhydrides and that are not processable under conditions reported previously are made processable by this invention by incorporating various amounts of APB. Such polyimides can also be tailored for different applications. To express interest in this opportunity, please submit a license application through NASA's Automated Technology Licensing Application System (ATLAS) by visiting https://technology.nasa.gov/patent/LAR-TOPS-211 If you have any questions, please contact Langley Research Center at [email protected] with the title of this Technology Transfer Opportunity as listed in this FBO notice and your preferred contact information. For more information about licensing other NASA-developed technologies, please visit the NASA Technology Transfer Portal at https://technology.nasa.gov/ These responses are provided to of NASA's Technology Transfer Program for the purpose of promoting public awareness of NASA-developed technology products, and conducting preliminary market research to determine public interest in and potential for future licensing opportunities. No follow-on procurement is expected to result from responses to this Notice .
