The Air Force is heavily invested in POSS Applications Research and Development. Currently one application is being 'flight'tested' for a technology transition. New applications are being investigated (e.g. batteries, capacitors, radomes). The technology transfer to Hybrid Plastics is a success story with significant volume increase and price reduction. POSS Nanotechnology Offers Versatility.
