This Department of Defense grant, under DPA Title III, is for the Conductive Composite Nano-Materials Scale-Up Project. Its primary purpose is to advance the production of nickel-based CVD conductive composite nano-materials. These innovative materials are crucial as they impart essential electrical conductivity to substances typically dielectric. The grant supports the scale-up of structural materials like nickel-coated powder, fiber, and woven/non-woven sheets, alongside high aspect ratio nickel nano-filaments. These advanced composites are increasingly vital for military applications, including sophisticated electronics, satellites, and aircraft. The overarching goal is to enable the development of next-generation military systems that are significantly lighter and more fuel-efficient, enhancing operational capabilities and sustainability.

| Description: | Project Title: DPA Title III Conductive Composite Nano-Materials Scale-Up Project. Nickel based CVD conductive composite nano-materials impart electrical conductivity to materials that normally have a dielectric behavior. Structural materials such as nickel-coated powder, fiber, and woven/non-woven sheet, as well as high aspect ratio nickel nano-filaments are being widely implemented in military systems such as electronics, satellites, and aircraft in order to meet the need for systems to be lighter weight and more (fuel) efficient. |
