TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: Extremely Light Foam (ELF)

What the job is

ELF (Extremely Light Foam) is a new way to make structural foam that is both much lighter and much stronger than today�s alternatives. The process, developed by scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory, uses common epoxy materials mixed with tiny hollow particles and a temporary liquid that later evaporates. As the material cures, this liquid naturally leaves behind a well-organized network of empty space…
