Nano Hydrophobics, Inc is a research and development firm focused on the relationship between energy and water. The firm has expertise in nanoscopic coatings which can prevent or retard naturally-occurring fouling which is a major problem in heat transfer. The company's research is based on the belief that advanced nano materials, when applied to critical heat transfer surfaces, make them more resistant to fouling while not impeding heat transfer, thus, fundamentally improving thermal transfer and overall system efficiency.
