In plain English
Los Alamos National Laboratory is offering companies the opportunity to license its patent-pending ThermaSpin high-temperature viscometer technology. The instrument measures the viscosity of molten salts, metals and other reactive liquids at temperatures up to about 1,000°C in a sealed, controlled atmosphere. This is a technology licensing opportunity, not a request for development services.
About this bid
Value Proposition: ThermaSpin, developed by scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory, provides a reliable, cost-effective way to measure the flow behavior (viscosity) of extremely hot and reactive liquids, such as molten salts and metals, under realistic operating conditions. Unlike existing solutions that are expensive, complex or poorly suited for low-viscosity fluids, this enclosed high-temperature viscometer delivers high sensitivity, small sample requirements and precise atmospheric control, enabling accurate measurements without exposing materials to air or contamination. This capability is critical for industries such as advanced nuclear energy, thermal energy storage and…
