Abstract
The transition towards electric aviation represents a significant stride in addressing the environmental impact of transportation, particularly concerning gas emissions. With the aviation sector identified as a substantial contributor to carbon emissions, the development of electric aircraft emerges as a crucial innovation towards achieving sustainable air travel. This paper explores the role of composite materials in the advancement of electric aircraft, focusing on their application in airframe construction, electrical systems integration, and the enhancement of propulsion systems. Composite materials, including carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP), glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP), aramid fiber composite, and hybrid composites, offer superior strength, reduced weight, and high durability, making them ideal for electric aircraft design. Despite their advantages, challenges such as high manufacturing costs and recycling complexities persist. Through a comprehensive analysis, this study examines the potential of advanced manufacturing techniques and sustainable organic materials in overcoming these hurdles, paving the way for the widespread adoption of electric aircraft. The paper highlights the transformative impact of composite materials on electric aviation, addressing both the performance enhancements they facilitate and the obstacles to their broader application.
