DARPA taps Cambium for AI tools to identify biobased polymer composites

November 24, 2025 |

In California, materials innovator Cambium was awarded a contract with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency to build artificial intelligence capabilities for identifying novel “bio-enabled extreme-performance” polymer composites. The project will use generative AI to overcome the long-standing trade-off between thermal stability and mechanical strength in structural composites. Cambium and DARPA seek to identify commercially […]
