Research status and prospect of graphene materials in aviation

Abstract

Among various 2D materials, graphene has received extensive research attention in the past 2-30 years due to its fascinating properties. The discovery of graphene has provided a huge boost and a new dimension to materials research and nanotechnology. Many lightweight materials with good performance have been widely used in the aviation field, which has greatly promoted the development of military and civilian industries and promoted technological innovation. Based on the introduction of the structure and properties of graphene, this paper summarizes the application value of graphene in the aerospace field in three aspects: energy equipment, sensors, and composite materials used outside aircraft.
