$3M Award Supports Production of New Multi-tasking Fuzzy Fiber Nanomaterial; Energy Applications

Green Car Congress

Nicknamed “fuzzy fiber” by its inventor at UDRI, Nano Adaptive Hybrid Fabric (NAHF-XTM) is the first tailored nanomaterial capable of being produced in sizes and quantities large enough to make them affordable and viable for large-scale commercial use. This is going to disrupt the way we think about materials. Brian Rice.
