About this award
The University of North Texas (UNT) Research and Innovation Division was awarded a cooperative agreement valued at $869,860 on August 21, 2023, to develop Protective Thermal Electro-Chromic Coatings (PROTECC) for Lunar Exploration. The contract, which is not set-aside for any specific business category, will be performed in Denton, Texas, with an ultimate completion date of August 20, 2026. As a public research university designated as a Hispanic-Serving Institution, UNT brings substantial research infrastructure and expertise to this initiative, which directly supports NASA's lunar exploration objectives by advancing thermal management technologies essential for spacecraft and equipment operating in the extreme lunar environment.
This cooperative agreement reflects UNT's established track record in aerospace and materials science research for federal agencies. The university's Research and Innovation Division has previously delivered comparable advanced materials projects, including work on variable conductance radiators for deep space transit and hierarchically structured composites for in-situ resource utilization. The development of electro-chromic coating technology aligns with broader federal initiatives to enhance the thermal protection and operational efficiency of spacecraft systems, positioning UNT to contribute critical protective innovations to the nation's lunar exploration program.
