The development of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) vehicles hinges on creating aircraft that are both lightweight and durable. This necessity for weight reduction without sacrificing strength has pushed the boundaries of material science, requiring innovative solutions. Traditionally, aircraft have relied on aluminum alloys and titanium for their excellent strength-to-weight ratios. However, the needs of eVTOLs demand materials that can outperform these, particularly in the context of energy efficiency and sustainability.
