This federal contract award to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop next-generation battery technologies for electric aircraft and powered devices. Specifically, the $119,881.31 grant supports research into using a solid lithium metal anode, which offers high energy density, but faces challenges with lithium dendrite formation. UMD proposes to address this by developing a thin, porous 2D nanosheet coating for battery separators to block dendrite growth while maintaining fast lithium ion diffusion. This contract has no set-aside designation. The University of Maryland system serves as the parent organization for UMD, and has a history of supporting federal research and development efforts through both contract awards and grants across agencies like the Department of Defense, Department of Education, and National Science Foundation.
