- Description
- Sandia National Laboratories, the lead research and development laboratory for the Department of Energy, is seeking business partners in dendritic metallic nanostructure technology, which can be used to create high surface area platinum in many forms. Sandia is seeking a company or companies to commercialize the technology described in this posting, and expects the successful company(ies) to engage in a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) and / or license the technology from Sandia. Commercial licensees will have the opportunity to request an exclusive license to the intellectual properties in a defined field of use for reasonable compensation. It is expected that the company(ies) will promptly incorporate this technology into a commercial product. Potential partners must provide Sandia information describing their ability to research, design, develop, manufacture, distribute, and market the nanostructure technology. The dendritic metallic nanostructure technology can be used to produce platinum catalysts with unique shape, size, porosity, composition, stability, and other functional properties. Novel catalysts and electrocatalysts produced by this approach are expected to significantly reduce the amount of platinum metal used and thus the cost of platinum catalysts for fuel cells, solar cells, and other applications. The platinum nanostructures also exhibit enhanced structural stability thus preserving the high surface area and activity of the nanocatalysts in a wide variety of important technological and industrial applications. To express interest in this opportunity, please respond by mail to Tracey Norris by 31 January 2010 at: Sandia National Laboratories, MS 0114, P.O. Box 5800, Albuquerque New Mexico 87185-0115, E-mail: tanorri@sandia.gov, Phone: (505) 284-3557. Please indicate the date and title of the FBO notice. Include company and contact information, as well as a description of how your company meets Sandia’s criteria and could best contribute to the formation of a CRADA or license and the subsequent commercialization of this technology. Sandia is a multiprogram laboratory operated by Sandia Corporation, a Lockheed Martin Company, for the United States Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration under Contract DE-AC04-94AL85000 SAND 2009-8185P.
