Abstract
Aerospace materials play a crucial role in modern aerospace technology. This paper is mainly a comprehensive overview of aerospace materials, including their classification, properties and applications. Aerospace materials are used in a wide range of applications, including aircraft and spacecraft, propulsion systems, and electronics. The paper also summarizes the importance and diversity of aerospace materials in various applications. The classification of aerospace materials includes metal materials, composite materials, ceramic materials and nanomaterials. Each material has unique properties that make it suitable for different applications. Aerospace materials are used in a wide range of applications, including aircraft and spacecraft, propulsion systems, and electronic devices. Materials for aircraft and spacecraft are particularly demanding because they are subjected to extreme temperatures, pressures and vibrations. Materials for propulsion systems and electronics require properties such as high strength, high electrical conductivity and high corrosion resistance. This paper also summarizes the importance and diversity of aerospace materials in various applications. Through the reading of this article, readers will understand the key role of aerospace materials in modern aerospace technology.
