Aerospace materials refer to the specialized materials used in the design and construction of aircraft, spacecraft, satellites, and other aerospace vehicles. These materials must meet rigorous requirements for performance, weight, durability, corrosion resistance, and overall structural integrity, as they often operate under extreme conditions such as high temperatures, pressure variations, and varying atmospheric conditions. Key types of aerospace materials include: 1. **Metals**: Commonly used for structural components, aluminum alloys are popular due to their lightweight and strength.
