dc.description.abstractThe development of materials for aerospace applications has increasingly focused on epoxy resins, block copolymers (BCPs), and nanocomposites due to their excellent mechanical, thermal, and environmental properties. Epoxy resins are valued for their strength, stiffness, and chemical resistance, but their brittleness and cracking tendencies pose challenges. BCPs address these issues by improving toughness and flexibility. Nanocomposites, incorporating nanoparticles such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and nanoclays, further enhance the thermomechanical properties and environmental resistance of epoxy/BCP systems. These advanced materials are ideal for aerospace components exposed to harsh conditions, offering improved durability, reduced weight, and enhanced performance. This chapter examines recent progress in integrating epoxy resins and BCPs, focusing on the role of nanocomposites in overcoming material limitations for aerospace applications. It also discusses the challenges of achieving uniform nanoparticle dispersion, ensuring long-term durability under extreme conditions, and overcoming manufacturing complexities. Despite these challenges, these materials have the potential to revolutionize the aerospace industry, improving performance, reducing weight, and increasing durability, thus driving future innovations in aircraft design and performance. © 2026 Elsevier Inc.
