About this award
Rockytech LTD, a minority-owned, woman-owned, and economically disadvantaged small business based in Boulder, Colorado, has been awarded a $174,469 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I contract by the National Science Foundation to develop advanced polymer nanocomposites for lunar dust mitigation and surface longevity. The firm-fixed-price definitive contract is set aside for small business participation and will be performed in Boulder through March 27, 2026. This research initiative aims to create innovative materials solutions that improve operational conditions and extend the durability of equipment and structures on lunar surfaces by addressing the challenges posed by abrasive lunar dust.
The SBIR Phase I award represents a significant opportunity for Rockytech LTD to advance its expertise in materials science and nanocomposite engineering with direct applications to NASA's lunar exploration objectives. As a company with demonstrated capability in advanced polymer research and sustainable technology development, Rockytech LTD's work under this contract will contribute to the broader national effort to support sustained human presence on the Moon by developing materials that can withstand the harsh lunar environment. The contract follows the company's previous SBIR Phase I success and positions it for potential Phase II funding should the initial research phase prove successful.
