- This is a $798,222 research grant awarded by NASA to Materials Development Inc., a for-profit subchapter S corporation. The grant supports an international collaboration with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) to conduct microgravity-based experiments using JAXA's Electrostatic Levitation Furnace (ELF) to measure the thermophysical properties of supercooled molten metal oxides. These materials are precursors to high-value glass used in photonics, lasers, optical communications, and...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Florida (UF) is for a research project to develop a novel method for measuring interfacial tension (IFT) using an electrostatic levitator (EL). The project aims to determine IFT, a key thermophysical property, for liquid/gas systems relevant to materials processing and welding operations in space and on the ground. The proposed approach involves using...
