- National Aeronautics and Space AdministrationTO ENHANCE NASA SYSTEMS, SPIRE PROPOSES A NOVEL TECHNIQUE FOR GROWING A GRADED NANOCRYSTALLINE ZRON/ZRO2 PROTECTIVE COATING WITH SUPERIOR HEAT TOLERANCE ON RELEVANT IN-SPACE SUBSTRATES. THE PROPOSED COATING TECHNOLOGY WILL ADHERE TO AND PROTECT ENGINE COMPONENTS SUCH AS INJECTORS, COMBUSTION CHAMBERS, NOZZLES, AND NOZZLE EXTENDERS. CONVENTIONAL HIGH TEMPERATURE COATINGS APPLIED BY CHEMICAL VAPOR DEPOSITION INADEQUATELY ADHERE, AND OFTEN SPALL. THE PROPOSED COATING WILL DISTRIBUTE STRESS INDUCED BY THERMAL CYCLING AND IMPROVE ADHESION, RESULTING IN AN IMPROVED AND LONGER LASTING COATING. THE HIGH TEMPERATURE PHASE OF ZRO2 IS PRODUCED BY CONTROLLING NUCLEATION, GRAIN GROWTH, AND GRAIN SIZE VIA THE UNIQUE FEATURES OF OUR DEPOSITION TECHNIQUE. THE INCREASED SURFACE ENERGY OF THE NANOGRAINS RESULTS IN THE FORMATION OF A DENSE CUBIC PHASE OF ZIRCONIA, WHICH IS STABLE AT VERY HIGH TEMPERATURE. PHASE I WILL DEVELOP A BASE-LINE PROCESS FOR APPLYING HIGHLY ADHERENT, THERMALLY-RESISTANT CUBIC ZRO2 LAYERS ON IN-SPACE PROPULSION SUBSTRATES WITH A FUNCTIONALLY GRADED ZRON METALLOCERAMIC TRANSITION LAYER AT THE METAL INTERFACE. THE DEPOSITION GUIDELINES FOR NANOCRYSTALLINE ZRON/ZRO2 COATING WILL BE PERFECTED TO EACH UNIQUE SUBSTRATE IN PHASE II. IN ADDITION, A NUMBER OF METALLIC COMPONENTS WILL BE COATED AND DELIVERED TO NASA TO BE EVALUATED FOR IN-SPACE PROPULSION USE.contract · Last action 2011-07-28$99,575

About this data
This profile aggregates federal enforcement records on SPIRE CORPORATION from every major federal compliance and enforcement source plus the UVA Corporate Prosecution Registry. OSHA workplace safety inspections, WHD wage cases, MSHA mine safety, EPA environmental enforcement, NLRB labor relations, OFLC visa/labor certification, FMCSA motor carrier registration, SAM.gov debarments, CMS nursing-home records, BLS industry safety benchmarks, OSHA ITA self-reported injury rates, SEC enforcement and financial disclosures, CPSC and NHTSA recalls.
Establishments are matched across agencies using normalized employer name, state, and ZIP code. This establishment resolves to the parent rollup SPIRE INC, which operates 12 establishments in our dataset.
OSHA citations typically appear 3–8 months after the inspection, so very recent enforcement actions may not yet be reflected. Profiles may be incomplete if the establishment operates under multiple legal names or files under variations our entity-matching rules don’t yet cover.
