Research & Development
Researching and developing two-phase thermal control technologies was ACT’s primary focus at inception. As the company has successfully transitioned those early R&D efforts into commercial product offerings, the R&D group has maintained strength in two-phase thermal technologies while helping to expand the company into many other areas including combustion, plasma, coatings and advanced modeling. ACT’s R&D team features over 50 team members with 50% of them holding PhD’s or advanced degrees.
Technology Advancements
Our R&D team prides itself in developing new thermal technologies and transitioning them to the market. As a result, ACT was awarded a Tibbetts Award in 2011. The Small Business Association (SBA) presents the Tibbetts awards nationally to small companies that have advanced technical innovation and economic growth through its Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program. In 2025, ACT surpassed $250M in revenues resulting from technologies that were originated from SBIR-seeded programs.
