- Description
- NASA�s Technology Transfer Program solicits inquiries 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.��NASA provides no funding in conjunction with these potential licenses. THE TECHNOLOGY: Batteries, such as lithium-ion for example that are sold for consumer use in portable electronic devices and other applications such as electrical cars, occasionally fail in the field over time.� These cells have typically passed a wide variety of safety tests, such as those required by governmental shipping regulations and other certification organizations.� Nevertheless, they sometimes fail by overheating, which triggers thermal runaway in the battery.� This action may engulf the entire device such as a cellular phone or tablet-type devices.� To better understand these failure modes, innovators at the NASA Johnson Space Center and the DOE National Energy Renewable Laboratory have developed a battery test device, which introduces latent flaws into the test batteries to produce an internal short circuit.� This device can help battery manufacturers and testers determine which battery design will best minimize the spread of a thermal runaway-induced fire in the battery or bank of batteries. To express interest in this opportunity, please submit a license application through NASA�s Automated Technology Licensing Application System (ATLAS) by visiting https://technology.nasa.gov/patent/MSC-TOPS-75 If you have any questions, please contact NASA Johnson Space Center�s Technology Transfer Office at jsc-techtran@mail.nasa.gov with the title of this Technology Transfer Opportunity as listed in this FBO notice and your preferred contact information.� For more information about licensing other NASA-developed technologies, please visit the NASA Technology Transfer Portal at https://technology.nasa.gov/ These responses are provided to members of NASA�s Technology Transfer Program for the purpose of promoting public awareness of NASA-developed technology products, and conducting preliminary market research to determine public interest in and potential for future licensing opportunities.��No follow-on procurement is expected to result from responses to this Notice.
