The main applicant is leading a research-based venture spun out of Simon Fraser University that has developed a patented, PFAS-free ultra water-repellent (superhydrophobic) nanocoating technology. Our technology offers a more environmentally-friendly alternative to incumbent water-repellent coatings. The current goal of the venture is to explore the best technology-market match to commercialize the technology. Key operation activities include lab-scale R&D (material synthesis & characterization) and pilot trials with collaborators from the construction and textile industry.
