Improving the through-thickness thermal and electrical conductivity of carbon fibre/epoxy laminates by exploiting synergy between graphene and silver nano-inclusions (2015, background): “Polymer–matrix composites reinforced with continuous carbon fibres are increasingly being deployed as primary structures in military and civil aircrafts [1–6] due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent fatigue properties and good corrosion resistance.”
Polymer-Based Composites: An Indispensable Material for Present and Future Applications (2020, methodology): “In the A320 aircraft, about 800 kg weight is saved from using FRP composites when compared to aluminum alloy usage while also finding increased percentage application in the A330, A340, and the A380 superjumbo airliner [41].”
