On-Demand Production of Otto Fuel Resistant PPE and Aerospace Systems

NanoSonic is a small advanced materials company with expertise in the development of new materials using additive manufacturing (AM) processes and prototyping existing products with methodology that enables performance enhancements and cost reduction.  In this SBIR program, NanoSonic shall prototype Otto Fuel Coveralls, NSN 8415-01-562-6728(s)/PGC: 03538, using seamless dipping AM techniques in support of DLA’s Nuclear and General Warfighting Requirements (GWR).  During Phase I, NanoSonic shall produce Otto Fuel Protective Type I Aprons, NSN 8415-PGC03538, per the technical data package (TDP) requirements outlined in: Purchase Description NCTRF PD 03-07C, Palletizing Units MIL-STD-147E (w/Change 2), Military Marking for Shipment and Storage MIL-STD-129R (w/Change 2), and Labeling DLA Textile Items MIL-DTL-32075.  We shall broaden the NSNs with the production of Type II shirts, Type III Trousers, and Type IV Coveralls.  Additionally, NanoSonic has teamed with HNu Photonics and Lockheed Martin to further expand on the NSNs to produce fuel bladders for the MK48 Torpedo and to introduce anti-counterfeit Track-and-trace (XTG) smart tag labelling technology during the option and later Phases.  This will enable NanoSonic to expand the number of NSNs to increase capacity and fulfillment of both DLA and Lockheed Martin production requirements and to reduce counterfeiting in the supply chain.
