2024 Collaborative R&D Lead participant

An innovative sealing fluid for carbon capture and storage wells using composition and morphology variation that could reduce leakage in 95% of wells with failed barrier integrity, approx. 7.9% of wells

1 Jul 2024 to 31 Dec 2025

Awarded
£286,071
Total cost £408,673

Vitritech is a UK-based petrochemical and chemicals SME, led by Christopher Sorsby (project manager), Angela Arnesano (technical lead), Susan Stewart (regulatory advisor), David Thomas (laboratory technician) and Brian Stewart (technical advisor). Carbon capture and storage (CCS) wells are affected by large temperature changes and the creation of carbonic...

2018 Collaborative R&D

AM Porous Layer Implant Design with Bioactive Layer of Glass Coating – APLID BioLOGIC

1 Jul 2018 to 31 Mar 2021

Awarded
£76,304
Total cost £109,006

Osteoarthritis (OA), especially of the hip and knee, is one of the leading causes of disability across the world. Every year there are over 3 million surgical replacements of joints -- with over 0.25 million in the UK. This number is growing all the time for two reasons: 1) arthritis is exacerbated by age and body weight and the world population is gettin...

2017 Collaborative R&D

Customisable 3D Glass Laser-Sintered Structures, “3D GLaSS”

1 Sep 2017 to 31 May 2019

Awarded
£24,665
Total cost £35,235

The Customisable 3D-Glass-Laser-Sintered-Structures project, "3D GLaSS" project will bring together the complete supply chain (material supplier, Additive Manufacturing (AM) equipment manufacturer, software developers, end-users of AM technology and their customers) to demonstrate the technical feasibility of a new (patented) glass-based additive manufact...

2017 Collaborative R&D

ULTRAfast Glass-based lasers (ULTRA-Glass)

1 Aug 2017 to 31 Jan 2020

Awarded
£28,442
Total cost £40,632

Femtosecond lasers are seeing wide adoption across a growing number of applications due to their ability to deliver precise high peak intensity energy. For microscopy high-resolution images are achievable and in micromachining high fidelity material processing with reduced recast and microcracking is enabled. Ultrafast lasers are increasingly taking over ...

2015 GRD Proof of Concept Lead participant

3D LOP

1 Oct 2015 to 31 Mar 2017

Awarded
£99,509
Total cost £165,849

GMS will develop an innovative machining process for the manufacture of 3D shaped Laser and Optical Parts (3D LOP), to achieve ‘inside-out’ machining of a glass block to produce components with complex geometrical shapes, to a high precision with minimal waste and at a fraction of the cost of current cutting technologies (which cut from the ‘outside-in’)....

2015 Feasibility Studies Lead participant

Development of Glass-based Saturable Absorber Q-Switch (Glass SAQS) technology

1 Jun 2015 to 30 Sep 2015

Awarded
£23,094
Total cost £32,992

This project will develop two novel, low cost ion-implantation techniques to integrate glass-based saturable-absorber ‘Q-switch’ (SAQS) functionality into a laser rod for 1.5 µm lasers (a market for which GMS has already developed a laser rod material). Both routes avoid the need for manufacturing a separate SAQS component, further costs and risk of modul...

2013 GRD Proof of Market Lead participant

Novel mid-IR lasers

1 Oct 2013 to 31 Mar 2014

Awarded
£25,000
Total cost £41,830
