SANDIA NATIONAL LABORATORIES HAS DEVELOPED THE FOLLOWING TWO INVENTIONS: 1. Carbon Supercapacitor Electrode Materials: A method is disclosed for preparing carbon materials useful as electrodes in supercapacitors that have: a continuous, porus structure whose density can be adjusted; an adjustable surface area of at least 500 m2/g; high electrical conductivity; high charge storage characteristics; sufficient mechanical strength such that robust thin samples can be prepared, and; the ability to be fabricated to near-net-shape. 2. High Surface Area, High Permeability Monolithic Carbon: A method is disclosed to develop a high surface area carbon in the form of a porous monolith that enables new applications. Its potential applications include electrodes for supercapacitors that store electrical energy and, application for processing of liquids and gases with improved separation efficiency with reduced contamination of the process stream. This is not a solicitation. Parties interested in obtaining more details about either or both of these inventions and/or in licensing these inventions, are invited to submit a letter of interest providing information about the company, area of potential applications of the technologies, and a point of contact. Letters should be sent to: Joanne Trujillo, MS 1380, Sandia National Laboratories, P.O. Box 5800, Albuquerque, NM 87185-1380. FAX: (505)271-4202.
