What is Boeing 777: Advanced Materials Overview about?

The development of the Boeing 777 was enabled by breakthrough advanced materials that allowed for reductions in structural weight while maintaining affordability. New aluminum alloys provided improved strength, toughness, and corrosion resistance, comprising 70% of the aircraft structure. Composites including carbon fiber epoxy were also used extensively. Titanium replaced steel in applications to reduce weight and corrosion. These material advances resulted in an over 5,800 pound weight reduction.
