  • First Online:
Aerospace Materials and Material Technologies

Part of the book series: Indian Institute of Metals Series ((IIMS))

Abstract

In this chapter synthesis of nanomaterials by various nanomanufacturing (top-down and bottom-up) processes, synthesis and properties of aerogel, and advanced electrodeposited coatings and their properties, are reviewed. Further, the potential applications of nanomaterials, aerogels, and electrodeposited coatings in the aerospace industry are concisely surveyed.
