The University
awarded
a contract for
an easy tube system and controller
to
First Nano Incorporated, Carpinteria, CA,
for
$117,500.
The unit being purchased will be used for fabrication of non structures, materials, sensors and nanotubes. The easy tube system is the only system available that has the capability to allow the primary investigator to produce nano scaled materials of the highest quality and consistency.
The production of high quality nano scaled materials is a requirement for the research projects funded by the Federal Highway Administration, and the National Science Foundation. Research conducted by the primary investigator on other systems resulted in inconsistent material properties, and deficiencies in material products.
