A big country of aerospace with black technology

"Brother Xingyang, aren't their steel data too exaggerated?"

Su Xiao held the latest issue of Materials Science Magazine and looked at the special steel just developed by Yingjiang Materials Laboratory highlighted in the magazine with some depression.

"The strength performance of our strongest super alloy material is only 45% of theirs!"

In the latest issue of Materials Science magazine, the superalloy material recently developed by Boeing Materials Research Institute was published.

In terms of performance, it can be said that it is an all-round success for all super alloy materials in the world.

"Let me see!"

Zhang Xingyang was also a little puzzled when he heard the words.

If his memory was not confused, at this stage, the superalloy properties of the Materials Laboratory of the Rocket Research Institute should be among the best in the world.

Although it is not as beneficial as the various formulas for future generations in my mind.

But with Su Xiao and the others' hard work day and night, and their annual investment without any regard for return.

In this era, materials science should also be top-notch.

In the past four to five years, the Rocket Research Institute has invested more than 2 billion in materials alone.

Not only because at the current stage, China is in a relatively backward position in materials science and is in urgent need of making up lessons.

This is especially because many of Zhang Xingyang's subsequent plans require the application of high-performance materials.

Whether it is a large space station, lunar exploration, or moon landing program, a large number of supporting high-performance materials are needed.

This is also an important reason why Zhang Xingyang has been investing huge amounts of money in materials laboratories that have almost no income.

Of course, if the various incomes of Factory 703 are included, the investment in materials has actually already recovered the cost.

"Their material properties are so strange!"

Zhang Xingyang frowned and said after reading the material properties introduced in the magazine.

Normally, ordinary materials pursue balanced performance and low cost as much as possible.

However, materials in some high-end fields are not like this, but must pursue extreme performance.

For example, superconducting materials pursue extreme conductivity and temperature.

The ablation-resistant coating on the outside of the rocket shell is to pursue thermal conductivity and try to take away the heat generated by the rocket's high-temperature friction through vaporization, sublimation and other phenomena.

"Their strength and performance are so high, are they going to be used on armored vehicles or surface ships?"

Su Xiao also thought about it at this time and said.

As a genius with sufficient talent in the field of materials, he has worked in the materials laboratory within the institute for so many years.

Su Xiao also has a good understanding of which scenarios different materials are used in.

Generally speaking, these large armored weapons pursue such powerful strength.

Of course, it goes without saying that armored vehicles use steel to form the first line of defense.

Because of their large size, surface ships need strong strength to be able to support their bodies.

This is also an important reason why Su Xiao guessed these two items in the first place.

"Probably not."

Zhang Xingyang shook his head and denied Lidya Su's guess.

“You can look at the published byline of this article.”

Zhang Xingyang pointed to the two names at the bottom of the article and said:

"I have the impression that these two people should work for Boeing."

"So the superalloy described in this article should be used in spacecraft."

"Furthermore, you can take a look. In addition to its outstanding strength properties, this material's high-temperature resistance and corrosion resistance are actually similar to those of our rocket shell materials."

Generally speaking, rocket shell materials will be made of materials with high strength, high temperature resistance, strong corrosion resistance, and low density.

"Then it seems that the density of their material is too high, right?"

At this time, Su Xiao pointed out another problem with this material.

Rocket shell materials generally use low-density carbon fiber, ceramic materials, or high-strength aluminum alloys or titanium alloys.

However, superalloys are alloys of iron, cobalt, and nickel, and do not have an advantage in density.

This is also an important reason why I didn’t think of aerospace materials at the first time.

"Yes, why?"

Zhang Xingyang couldn't help muttering to himself.

This kind of material has never appeared in his previous history line.

"Is this a change brought about by the butterfly effect?" Zhang Xingyang couldn't help but guess in his heart.

Although the performance of this material, from the perspective of future generations, is just that.

But Zhang Xingyang was still very vigilant.

Because this means that this era will be changed with his profound influence.

There have also been many changes in this era that we are not aware of.

However, Zhang Xingyang searched through all the relevant scientific research plans of Yingjiang during this period.

Still caught the clues.

That was part of Yingjiang's previous hypersonic missile research program.

A rather peculiar design exists.

That is to build the hypersonic warhead into a small rocket, and then release the warhead after the rocket reaches a predetermined height.

If such materials are applied to hypersonic warheads, some explanations can be made.

High strength means that even if the warhead is hit head-on by the enemy's kinetic energy weapon, it will not be directly fragmented, and it can still attack the intended target.

As for high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, needless to say, these properties are necessary during the flight of the warhead.

"But did they develop materials with such properties so quickly?"

Even after Zhang Xingyang had such a guess, he was not very sure.

Because even after twenty years, the research and development of this weapon by Eagle Sauce has not been successful, and there have been problems in various aspects.

Nowadays, it seems that it is suddenly opened, and such materials have been produced in such a short period of time.

"Su Xiao, if you were asked to develop materials with the same performance, how long would it take you?"

Zhang Xingyang was going to ask Lidya Su what he thought.

Make sure if you have misunderstood the scientific research speed of Eagle Sauce in this era.

"For such materials, if I were given ten years, I might be able to achieve 80 percent of their performance."

"Give me fifteen years, and I might be able to reach ninety."

Although Su Xiao was a little embarrassed, he still answered Zhang Xingyang's question.

At this time, Zhang Xingyang had another thought in his mind.

That is, Yingjiang will not cheat on the material performance again!

If this is really the case, then it is not particularly strange to have such performance parameters.

And if you want to know whether there is fraud, you still need to test them a little bit.

After making up his mind, Zhang Xingyang was ready to take action! (End of chapter)
