Products
Hydrophobic ceramic–polymer hybrid coating
Transparent, abrasion-resistant ceramic–polymer hybrid coating with tunable surface chemistry for water and oil repellency, antifog, antimicrobial, and antifouling applications; developed from defense-funded research and licensed for commercial distribution.
Non-chromate galvanic corrosion coating for fasteners
Sol-gel-based coating engineered to block electrical conductivity and water intrusion at dissimilar-metal interfaces, designed to replace chromate-based protection around fasteners and reduce galvanic corrosion.
Transparent armor potting and edge-sealant (polyurethane potting compound)
Two-part, catalyst-cured polyurethane potting compound formulated without solvents and plasticizers to improve adhesion, hydrolytic stability, and UV resistance for transparent armor edge sealing and potting.
Acuity corrosion monitoring systems (sensor families and C-DAT analytics)
Integrated portfolio of electrochemical and environmental sensors for on-asset monitoring (multi-alloy capability), high-throughput materials/coating testing, and cloud analytics that convert sensor data into actionable maintenance decisions.
Cloud-based corrosion data analysis tool (C-DAT)
Cloud analytics platform that automates time-series analysis, cumulative trend reporting, and visualization for corrosion sensor data to support maintenance decision-making.
Vestibular stimulation virtual motion system
Modular vestibular interface and stimulation system that provides motion cues synchronized with VR/MR visuals to reduce cybersickness and enable spatial disorientation training without full-motion platforms.
