The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is soliciting inquiries from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture, and market self-cleaning seal technology developed at the Kennedy Space Center. This licensing opportunity, identified by solicitation number T2P-KSC-00057, focuses on Electrodynamic Dust Shield technology designed to remove dust from seals for hatches, suit ports, airlocks, and docking systems. The technology addresses the challenges of maintaining low leak rates in dusty environments, such as the surfaces of the Moon and Mars or terrestrial mining and material handling operations. License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis for specific fields of use, though NASA provides no funding in conjunction with these potential licenses.
This special notice is classified under NAICS 927110 for Space Research and Technology and PSC 9999 for Miscellaneous Items. The technology utilizes electrostatics to actively clean elastomeric and other seal types in a continuous or periodic manner, ensuring the safety and uptime of pressurized systems. Responses to this notice are used to promote public awareness and conduct market research regarding interest in NASA-developed products, with no follow-on procurement expected to result from the inquiry process. Interested parties must submit applications through NASA’s Automated Technology Licensing Application System by the response deadline of March 2, 2027.
