What materials are used in aerospace?
To optimize performance, aerospace systems usually involve a wide range of materials, from ceramic thermal barrier coatings in jet engines to carbon-fiber reinforced composites in wings and fuselages, from high-temperature TiAl metals to high strength Titanium used in landing gears. Aerospace parts need to be strong. Carbon steel is of the most commonly used materials in the industry due to its fantastic properties, which include a high degree of strength.
