The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $224,845 Project Grant under the NSF Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY) to fund collaborative research on self-limiting electrospray deposition of nanowire-particle composites for advanced coatings. The goal is to enable the mass production of nanowire coatings on complex 3D surfaces using electrostatically-induced sprays of waterborne gelling polymers. The research integrates advanced experimental techniques and multiphysical modeling to determine the physical mechanisms of dropwise nanowire formation and deposition. The project aims to advance the understanding of electrospray deposition of complex fluids and provide a foundation for scalable manufacturing of nanowire composites and their superstructures. The award period runs from Nov 15, 2024 to Oct 31, 2027.
