Description
Los Alamos National Laboratory seeks partners to license a novel hydrogen‑getter technology (GetterGauge) that visually indicates remaining capacity via a color change and offers high hydrogen storage, broad temperature range, and selective uptake without activation. The licensing opportunity targets companies in nuclear, semiconductor, aerospace, medical device, and energy‑efficiency markets that can integrate the material into sealed systems. The technology is at Technology Readiness Level 4, with patents pending, and the licensor offers flexibility for exclusive or non‑exclusive agreements.
• Provides a self‑gauging hydrogen getter with up to ~1200 cm³ H₂ per gram and operation from –0 °C to >100 °C.
• Enables non‑destructive visual monitoring of hydrogen capacity, reducing maintenance uncertainty.
• Applicable across multiple sectors (nuclear waste, space, medical implants, vacuum panels) and compatible with plastics/polymer integration.
