Abstract:
Nanomaterials Discovery Corporation (NDC) announced today that it will receive $2.5 million from the DoD in FY2005. NDC is working with the Army Material Command at Picatinny Arsenal to use nanotechnology to produce a new class of fuel cells powered by high energy materials such as propellants and explosives. The nanotechnologies developed by NDC under this program will be used to produce portable power devices for soldiers and enable development of miniature power supplies for fusing and arming munitions.
