GENERAL SCIENCES INC — Department of Defense SBIR Phase I: A19-110
GENERAL SCIENCES INC — SBIR Phase I award from Department of Defense.
Phase I SBIR feasibility signal
- Phase I awards fund proof-of-concept work. For capture teams, they mark early interest from Department of Defense in a technical approach.
- Watch for Phase II follow-ons from the same firm/topic family — that conversion path is where budgets and transition pressure rise.
- Obligated amount $111,442. Cross-check similar awards in the same agency and technology tags for going-rate context.
- Topic code A19-110 links this award to a solicitation family — search the same topic stem for incumbents and recompete timing.

Description
General Sciences, Inc (GSI) proposes several intermetallics and other highly energetic concepts as well as structures which can eventually satisfy the desirable Structural Reactive Materials (SRM) specifications. The exothermicity of these candidates can exceed 1.5kcal/g, the density of 8g/cc, and strength that will satisfy future munition requirements. Pertinent studies are proposed in materials/system synthesis, relevant physical/mechanical property measurements, and ballistic testing. Analysis of the above data will provide a downselect for future studies and reactive case fabrication options.
