About this award
The U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory awarded a $1.25 million Phase II Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) contract to Ballydel Technologies Inc., a Delaware-based small business specializing in advanced materials science and defense applications. This definitive, firm fixed-price contract, designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, supports the development of scalable MXene synthesis for aerospace applications, with performance extending through June 2026. Ballydel Technologies will conduct this work at its Talleyville, Delaware facility, building upon successful Phase I research valued at approximately $150,000. MXenes are two-dimensional transition metal carbide and nitride materials with significant potential for lightweight structural and functional applications in aerospace systems.
This award represents continued investment in Ballydel's advanced materials capabilities, which align with the Air Force Research Laboratory's focus on innovative materials development for next-generation aerospace platforms. The STTR vehicle emphasizes collaboration between small businesses and research institutions to accelerate technology transition from basic research to practical applications. Ballydel's selection demonstrates the company's technical merit and small business credentials within the federal contracting community, particularly given its concurrent work on chemical detection systems, sensing polymers, and pharmaceutical supply chain security across multiple defense and civilian agencies.
