Mainstream Wins Contract to Develop Innovative Method for Ultra-Long Carbon Nanotubes

FLORIDA – June 11th, 2014 – Mainstream Engineering Corporation, a 28-year-old Brevard County research and manufacturing company, was recently awarded a contract from the U.S. Office of Naval Research to demonstrate a new innovative process to produce inch-long carbon nanotubes (CNTs). This represents a significant achievement towards the eventual goal of continuous nanotube growth and can revolutionize the manufacture of structural, thermal and electronic materials. This program supports the company’s continued interest in developing low-cost nanotechnology solutions for energy technologies.

Current CNT synthesis methods have low yields, are costly and are length limited. Mainstream’s process uses a radical alternative method to inhibit the mechanisms that normally would stunt CNT growth. This program also enables an expanded understanding of CNT synthesis. The CNT formation mechanism is still widely debated; however, Mainstream’s reactor design will allow engineers to conduct tests that can help clarify the formation process.

Mainstream has a history of leading-edge research and development that has resulted in advanced, lean-manufacturing and cost-competitive products, which are all proudly made in the USA.
