Available for Licensing: Fluorescent Tracer Technology for Hydrofluoric Acid Exposure DetectionThis licensing opportunity offers a novel UV-fluorescent tracer additive designed to improve safety in handling hydrofluoric acid (HF), a chemical widely used in petroleum refining, semiconductor manufacturing, and other industries but known for its hazardous and often symptomless exposure effects. The additive, made from a chemically inert xanthene dye, allows users to detect HF contamination on skin, clothing, or surfaces through UV light, enabling timely decontamination and treatment before damage occurs. This technology fills a significant safety gap by providing a practical post-task detection method, which current protective equipment and procedures do not offer, ultimately enhancing worker protection and hazard awareness. Beyond personal safety, the fluorescent tracer also aids in industrial leak detection by making HF visually distinguishable under UV light, thus reducing detection times in process environments. Its applications span large-scale industrial operations, laboratory research settings, and equipment maintenance scenarios where existing engineering controls may be insufficient. The technology is available for licensing through Idaho National Laboratory’s Technology Deployment office, with interested parties encouraged to discuss terms and partnership options with the designated point of contact. The solicitation for licensing responses is open until June 30, 2026.

TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: MoltenCladMoltenClad is an innovative technology developed by Los Alamos National Laboratory that enables the electrodeposition of dense, uniform metallic coatings on nuclear fuel pellets using a molten salt bath. This advanced process overcomes limitations of traditional line-of-sight coating methods, such as chemical and physical vapor deposition, by providing full-surface coverage in a single step. The electrochemical mechanism allows coatings to be applied evenly around complex pellet geometries without damaging the substrate, operating at temperatures compatible with refractory metals and ceramic fuel materials. The technology can produce crack-free, adherent layers of zirconium and other refractory metals that enhance fuel durability and withstand the harsh conditions inside nuclear reactors, such as high temperatures, corrosive fission products, and intense radiation. This versatile coating platform offers tunable properties through adjustments in salt composition, temperature, and electrical parameters, making it suitable for diverse applications including advanced nuclear reactors, defense, aerospace, nuclear fuel manufacturing, and isotope production. The low neutron absorption of zirconium coatings preserves reactor performance while adding a critical safety barrier that addresses gaps in accident-tolerant fuel designs. Currently at Technology Readiness Level 3, MoltenClad is patent-pending and available for licensing to organizations seeking scalable, adaptable solutions for high-performance fuel protection. The Department of Energy's Triad office, based in Columbus, Ohio, manages the licensing, with performance and development centered at Los Alamos, New Mexico.
