About this award

Aerocore Technologies LLC, a small disadvantaged business, was awarded a $1.2 million SBIR Phase II contract by the Air Force Research Laboratory to develop and advance its Nucleated Foam Technology for C-17 Globemaster III engine performance restoration. Under this firm fixed-price purchase order, Aerocore will conduct research and development activities at its Zionsville, Indiana facility, with an ultimate completion date of May 19, 2025. The contract, awarded September 26, 2023, is set aside for small businesses and represents the continuation of Aerocore's innovation efforts in on-wing engine cleaning technology, which removes built-up contaminants from engine hot sections in under an hour to restore performance and improve aircraft readiness.

This Phase II effort builds upon Aerocore's established expertise in applying its patented nucleated foam technology across multiple Air Force platforms, including the CV-22B and AC/MC-130J aircraft. The Small Business Innovation Research program provides a pathway for companies to develop innovative technologies through phases of increasing complexity and investment, with successful Phase II awards often leading to Phase III commercialization efforts. Aerocore's work in engine performance restoration directly supports Air Mobility Command and broader Air Force objectives by reducing aircraft downtime and maintenance costs while enhancing operational capability for critical transport and special operations missions.
