  1. Innovation - Developed new Class of Atomic Oxygen Resistant Polymers (TOR™) that survive in space 15X longer than currently used polymers. Atomic Oxygen Resistant PolymersTriton Systems Inc., Chelmsford, Massachusetts • Accomplishments • Developed Polymeric Products (TOR™ ) based on exclusive LaRC Patent Licenses. • Developed variations of TOR™ polymer to protect against Atomic Oxygen (AO) erosion and ultraviolet (UV) radiation degradation. • Tailored variations of TOR™ products to meet requirements for insulation, conductance and fire resistance. • Matured Technology Readiness Level from TR 2 to TR 8 across variety of product lines • TRITON SPACE DURABLE PRODUCTS • FILM • THREAD • CLOTH • Commercialization • TOR™ commercial sales: • Multilayer insulating (MLI) blankets on Commercial Satellite-- Launch Date (July 2000) • Insulation and conductive coating for ProSEDS elelctrodynamic tether --Launch Date (August 2000) • Thread for sewing soft goods for space missions • Optical fiber interconnect adhesive • High temperature film for use in flexible circuits and heaters • TOR™ used as electrically conductive polymer for electrostatic discharge management. • Annual Commercial Sales $500K-$1M beginning in CY 2000 anticipated. • Provided the ground work for Triton to grow from 7 employees in 1995 to in excess of 45 in 1999. • Government/Science Applications • Long Life AO Resistant and Conductive Metallized Films for Space Thermal Radiators . • Polymer Films for Beam Resistant Solar Sails • Fiber for Braided Thread and Woven Structures • Resin for Electrical Wire Insulation (or Conductivity) and Thin Coatings • Membranes for Contaminated Liquid Separation • Film for use in Flexible Electronic Circuits and Space Exposed Surfaces Points of Contact: - NASA (Dr. John Connell 757-864-4264) - Triton Systems, Inc.
