Advanced aluminum alloys are being developed that will provide major payoffs in terms of weight savings for new aerospace structures. The two property goals are: (1) a 30-percent increase in modulus of elasticity-to-density ratio, and (2) a 20-percent increase in modulus of elasticity-to-density ratio plus a 20-percent increase in strength-to-density ratio, when compared to Al 7075-T76 and without a significant loss in other properties important for structural applications.
