Abstract

The use of new and exotic material, graphene, is explored in tailoring and designing composites to create aircraft structural parts. The synthesis and engineering of graphene is still in infancy but the future potential is enormous. Some initial tests and subsequent validation results for graphene is described to establish a baseline for its future use as structural parts, as a part of composite material system in aerospace Industry. Initial results of using graphene either as a strengthening ply with polymer matrix type laminate or as a fiber in traditional composite system, shows enormous potential. This is the key aspect researchers are relying on.
