- Description
- Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), operated by Battelle Memorial Institute under contract to the U.S. Department of Energy, solicits interest 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. PNNL may also be available to licensee(s) to assist in further research and development of the technology under a SPP agreement, ACT agreement, or CRADA agreement. THE TECHNOLOGY: Battelle IPID 30927. US Pat Appl 14/839,471. A novel polymer nanomaterial composite coating that has demonstrated antifouling properties. The result is a low surface energy, foul-resistant, self-healing surface. When sprayed or painted on a surface and cured, the coating is superhydrophobic. Then a low-energy lubricant is infused throughout the structure, resulting in a stable slippery liquid interface. Nanoporous material in the coating aids in retention of the lubricant, extending useful lifetime of the slippery liquid surface. Nanoporous material also creates a reservoir for slippery liquid that allows the coating to have self-healing properties. For all inquiries, please reference Battelle IPID 30627. NOTE: THIS IS NOT A PROCUREMENT. Any company interested in licensing this technology must respond with a letter of interest (may be submitted by e-mail) no later than thirty (30) days from the publication date of this Notice summarizing the company's business and technical expertise and motivation for pursuing this opportunity. Companies deemed appropriate will be provided with further information on the technology. Such information may require an executed Nondisclosure Agreement. Respondents wishing to enter into negotiations for a commercial license will be required to submit a business plan for the commercialization of the technology prior to licensee(s) selection and negotiations. Please send letters of interest to the attention of the POC identified within this Notice, referencing Battelle IPID 30627.
