- Description
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Johnson Space Center (JSC) is seeking parties interested in collaborative development and mature technologies required for NASAs future missions and to enhance life on Earth. JSC is looking to partner on the development of broadly applicable technologies as a means to accelerate technology development and strengthen commercialization of federally-funded research and development. Purpose: NASA JSC seeks to advance the technology associated with Li-Ion Cells with improved discharge temperature ranges, improved charge temperature ranges, and improved energy densities. While our application is space oriented, Li-Ion batteries are common throughout many industries. Technology: State of the art li-ion technology is limited to safe and reliable operations at a temperature range of -20 to 60 C for discharge, and a temperature range of 0 to +45 C for charge. The highest energy densities for current Lithium Ion technology are 675 Wh/L (volumetric) and 245 Wh/Kg (gravimetric). Lithium Ion cell technology for the desired extreme thermal environments is estimated at a Technology Readiness Level of TRL-4. R&D Status: NASA JSC is equipped with destructive physical analysis facilities that include spectrometers, glove box, gas chromatographs, infra-red spectrometers, high-performance liquid chromatographs, and vent hoods.NASA JSC possesses state-of-the-art cell cycling testing capabilities and thermal chambers to simulate extreme temperature environments. Intellectual Property (IP): This Partner relationship may produce new IP that could be jointly owned by NASA and the partner or may become the property of the partner. This announcement is not to be construed as a Request for Proposal and is not a commitment by the government, nor will the government pay for any information provided. Since this is an Announcement, no evaluation letters or results will be issued to the respondents. Please submit the attached Statement of Interest Form to Mark Dillard To view all Co-Development and Partnering Opportunities with the NASA Johnson Space Center please visit our website http://1.usa.gov/1bL99AF
