Acquisition Opportunity TA&T was acquired by SINTX Technologies in 2022 and later acquired by Tethon Corporation in 2025, indicating a potential opportunity to engage with the successor entities or integration partners for defense, biomedical, and ceramic materials capabilities.

SBIR Engagement TA&T secured a Phase I SBIR contract with AFWERX in 2024, signaling ongoing government funding activity and a potential pathway to pursue related defense and space modernization projects with agencies that fund advanced materials and manufacturing.

Defense Focus Expertise in transparent ceramic armor, wear and erosion-resistant coatings, and advanced ceramic components positions TA&T to address current defense procurement needs and contract opportunities around protective materials and mission-critical components.

NASA and Government Ties Past collaboration with NASA and a government-facing R&D profile suggest outreach opportunities to space, aeronautics, and national lab programs seeking high-performance ceramics, coatings, and custom manufacturing capabilities.

Manufacturing Capabilities Capabilities in magnetron sputtered multilayer films, low-cost CVI ceramic composites, and stereolithographic ceramic/metal formulations enable scalable production partnerships for high-end industrial and defense applications where cost-effective, high-performance components are required.
