Innovating and commercializing disruptive technologies
Technology portfolio:
Accelerated production of solid rocket motors (SRM)
Problem:
Two main bottlenecks exist in US missile production, namely the process & player bottlenecks.
- Process bottleneck: Curing times for solid rocket propellants using synthetic rubber as a binder takes days
- Player bottleneck: There are too few players in the SRM supply chain.
What is offered:
A family of 3D printable compositions well suited to displacing current synthetic-rubber based APCP propellants, because ours are: better, faster to make, safer and more flexible.
Main features:
- Fast curing times for propellant grains; within seconds for some geometries, vs. days for conventional APCP propellants. Improvement by a factor of 1000+.
- Composition on offer is 3D printable.
- SRMs may be manufactured on demand, in situ. This has implications for insensitive munitions (e.g. naval magazines) or longer storage times (e.g. national stockpiles).
- New propellant has high mechanical toughness and elongation to failure
- New propellant is safe and stable
- New propellant has a low visibility burn
- The speed, manufacturing flexibility and performance of the composition significantly ameliorates the process and player bottlenecks.
Our proprietary binders are available for sale & evaluation as-is. Please reach out for more details.
Extended range, silent, air independent naval propulsion system
Problem:
Torpedoes remain highly effective tools for taking out surface vessels. Range of torpedoes is limited.
What is offered:
A novel, air independent naval propulsion system.
Main features:
- Superior range to existing non-nuclear AIP systems such as Otto Fuel or lithium batteries.
- Silent
- Long shelf-life
- Safe and insensitive
- Easier to manufacture; comparable to battery electric AIP systems in complexity
- Comparable price to battery electric AIP
- Suitable for submerged and surface platforms
