About this award

NASA awarded a $336,000 grant to Georgia TECH Research Corp (Office of Sponsored Programs) on August 15, 2024, for research on leveraging van der Waals forces to produce boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) fibers. The work addresses NASA's identified need for lightweight, structurally integrable, and thermally conductive materials—properties critical for aerospace applications. The grant is unfunded as of the award date and carries no set-aside designation, indicating open competition. The research will be performed at Georgia Tech's Atlanta, Georgia facility, with an ultimate completion date of August 14, 2028.

Georgia TECH Research Corp, the research entity of the Georgia Institute of Technology, is well-positioned to execute this materials science research given its extensive portfolio of federal contracts and grants spanning advanced materials development, aerospace research, and defense applications. The organization has demonstrated substantial experience securing funding from NASA alongside other major federal agencies including the Department of Defense, National Science Foundation, and Department of Energy. This grant award complements Georgia Tech's broader research mission in developing next-generation materials and technologies for government and commercial applications.
