High-temperature alloy materials are used for aviation engines to solve power problems.

Aerospace fighters not only need power, but also the body, which requires composite materials. Moreover, aerospace fighters rush out of the atmosphere, and to fly outside the atmosphere, the requirements for composite materials are very high. The current composite materials are far from meeting the needs of aerospace fighters.

The environment in space is much harsher than in the atmosphere. Anyone who pays attention to satellites knows that the materials used in satellites are very demanding because of the harsh space environment.

This requires Ye Chen to make composite materials that meet the requirements, otherwise nothing will be discussed.

The so-called composite material is a material with new properties composed of two or more materials with different properties through physical or chemical methods on a macro or micro level. Various materials learn from each other in terms of performance and produce synergistic effects, so that the overall performance of the composite material is better than that of the original constituent materials, thus meeting various requirements.

Speaking of the history of composite materials, it has a long history and can be traced back to ancient times.

Dating back to ancient times? Is it too much?

Really not talking nonsense.

The world-famous porcelain in our country was exported to the world in ancient times and was an important commodity on the famous "Silk Road". The materials used are composite materials. When our ancestors produced porcelain, they used straw or wheat orange to add other viscosities, which was the earliest composite material.

In addition, concrete can also be said to be a composite material.

Of course, the composite materials used now are much more advanced than this, and are the projects that major powers are vying to research.

In the 1940s, due to the needs of the aviation industry, glass fiber reinforced plastics, that is, glass fiber reinforced plastics, were developed, and the name composite material appeared since then.

After the 1950s, high-strength and high-modulus fibers such as carbon fibers, graphite fibers, and boron fibers were successively developed.

In the 1970s, aramid fiber and silicon carbide fiber appeared.

These high-strength, high-modulus fibers can be combined with non-metallic matrices such as synthetic resins, carbon, graphite, ceramics, and rubber, or metal matrices such as aluminum, magnesium, and titanium to form composite materials with their own characteristics.

Composite materials have a wide range of applications and can be used in all walks of life. The aviation industry is the most used, and the aircraft is made of composite materials. Because composite materials have excellent performance and are relatively light, they are the best materials for manufacturing aircraft. Think about it, if you want to send an airplane into the sky, of course the lighter the better, the greater the load.

If the weight of an aircraft is too large, the base power will be so large, and the cargo that can be carried will be less. If it is a fighter plane, the amount of ammunition it carries will be reduced, and the striking power will be weakened.

Composite materials are divided into two categories: structural composite materials and functional composite materials.

Structural composite material is a material used as a load-bearing structure. It is composed of reinforcement components that can bear loads and matrix components that can connect reinforcements to form an integral material and at the same time play a role in transmitting force.

Reinforcements include various glasses, ceramics, carbon, polymers, metals, as well as natural fibers, fabrics, whiskers, sheets and particles, etc., and substrates include polymers, metals, ceramics, glass, carbon and cement wait.

Functional composite materials are composed of functional body components and matrix components. The matrix not only plays the role of forming a whole, but also produces synergistic or enhanced functions.

Functional composites are composite materials that provide other physical properties in addition to mechanical properties. For example: conduction, superconductivity, semiconductivity, magnetism, piezoelectricity, damping, wave absorption, wave penetration, friction, shielding, flame retardant, heat protection, sound absorption, heat insulation and other functions.

Composite materials are just a general term, including many types, which add up to a lot, and each has its own use. There are a lot of composite materials used in aerospace fighters, and there are more types. It will take a long time for Ye Chen to verify it. Don't even think about it if you don't have a month or two.

Since then, Ye Chen has drilled into the laboratory to conduct verification work.

It has to be said that the products produced by the system must be high-quality products, and the technology of these composite materials is very advanced. After verifying one of them, Ye Chen was shocked by its excellent performance.

At the same time, Ye Chen became more confident again. With such excellent materials, there was no reason why he couldn't make an aerospace fighter.

In a blink of an eye, half a month passed, and Ye Chen verified a little.

Ye Chen still needs to make a production process for these verified composite materials, otherwise, they cannot be produced.

On this day, Ye Chen was verifying composite materials, and Zhao Bowen called.

Ye Chen connected and said with a smile, "Uncle Zhao, what do you do?"

"Stinky boy, can't I call you if I have nothing to do?" Zhao Bowen was still so indifferent.

"Uncle Zhao, you have a lot of things to do, so you won't think of me as a small person if you have nothing to do." Ye Chen teased.

"Stinky boy, just saying this to you, I have the urge to beat you up." Zhao Bowen was a little annoyed, and said: "You are the winner of the National Highest Science and Technology Award and the most valuable scientist in the world. If you are a small person, then How can you call me so embarrassing? Now that the whole world knows that the United States has to bow to you, can you be a little man?"

Ye Chen has no official status, and in terms of official rank, he is indeed inferior to Zhao Bowen. But when it comes to weight, ten Zhao Bowens are not as heavy as him.

Who told Ye Chen to be the winner of the highest national science and technology award, and forced the United States to bow his head and apologize to him.

If such a person is a small person, Lieutenant General Zhao Bowen would be ashamed to face others.

"By the way, Uncle Zhao, when it comes to the United States, has there been an answer from the United States?" Ye Chen spent this time in the laboratory, not caring about the outside world, and did not know whether the United States would agree to his conditions.

"Does the United States dare not reply?" Zhao Bowen smiled happily, and said, "You don't know how the United States has been shaken by you. Let me tell you that after receiving the report from the old man, Washington has been However, after the old man went back, he told about his experience, especially the experience of going to the photonic chip production workshop, which shocked the United States."

The high intelligence of the photonic chip workshop is unique, and the manufacturing level of the United States is far behind. The United States cannot but be shocked. Moreover, this was said from the mouth of the old man, which is highly credible.

"The United States quickly reached an agreement and agreed to trade with us in principle. However, the United States does not want to make this too public. This is a good face for the United States. Negotiate at the right time." Zhao Bowen said with a smile: "Boy, you let the old man visit the photon chip workshop, which is more powerful than anything else."

When Ye Chen asked the old man to visit, he wanted to show the United States something practical, otherwise, the United States would not give in.

The United States has always been bullying to the death if it can't be bullied, and seeks cooperation if it can't be bullied, and even begs you to cooperate. When the United States finds out that Ye Chen's manufacturing level is a few blocks behind the United States, the United States will definitely be anxious and have to ask for cooperation with China.

Then, the military base is gone.

"Then when do you plan to negotiate?" Ye Chen asked.

Zhao Bowen clasped his hands in front of his chest, looking calm, and said: "We are not in a hurry, the United States is in a hurry. I think that with the increase in the production of photonic chips, export will also be put on the agenda. If the photonic chips are exported before If the right of first refusal cannot be obtained, the United States will surely cry to death."

Indeed.

Now, the output of photonic chips is steadily increasing, and it will not be long before export models will be launched. By then, the United States has not got the right of first refusal, and someone must be very happy, and that is the man on the horse.

Mao Xiong's control level is not good. If he can get a photonic chip, his control level will be greatly improved. Mao Xiong's weapons are strong and durable, but the level of control is not good. If this shortcoming is made up for, Mao Xiong's strength will be greatly improved, which is extremely detrimental to the United States.

Now, the United States is pulling his gang of younger brothers and is imposing sanctions on Mao Xiong. If Mao Xiong's strength improves, the man on horseback's sentence "the boundary of Mao Xiong has no end" may no longer be just talk, and may become a reality.

The man on horseback made a joke, and the West was very nervous. Mao Xiong's strength has increased, can the West led by the United States not become more nervous?

So, it must be the United States that is in a hurry, why should we be in a hurry?

"At that time, when the United States comes to beg us, we will kill it severely." Ye Chen hurriedly came up with an idea.

"You are despicable, sinister enough, and shameless enough... But, I like it." Zhao Bowen laughed loudly, admiring it very much.

Now, the United States is not in a hurry to come because of face. When the United States comes, it is the time when the United States is in a hurry, and it is the time to slaughter the United States. If you don't kill him severely, you will be too sorry for yourself.

"However, boy, you also gave us a huge problem." After Zhao Bowen laughed, he said very seriously.

"What problem?" Ye Chen was taken aback. After thinking about it, he has always been helping the military solve problems, but he has never posed problems for the military.

"Your output of photonic chips has increased, but our supply of laser materials can't keep up." Zhao Bowen said.

It turned out to be this matter, Ye Chen suddenly realized that this was already expected by Ye Chen, Ye Chen also verified the laser material technology for this, and was building a factory, ready to produce by himself.

"So fast?" Ye Chen was a little surprised.

Although I knew that this day would come sooner or later, I never thought that it would come so soon. According to Ye Chen's thinking, at least it will last for half a year. It's only been a few months, and the military is getting nervous.

"The output of laser materials is not large, and our consumption is not small. Your current consumption is so large, we can supply you for two months at most. After two months, we will not be able to meet your needs anyway. " Zhao Bowen was a little helpless, and said: "Boy, this is you too, we had to grit our teeth for so long. If it were someone else, we would have stopped supplying it long ago."

The cooperative relationship between Ye Chen and the military is good. Unless there is really no other way, the military will not interrupt the supply. It seems that the military is really unable to meet Ye Chen's needs.

"Two months should be enough." Ye Chen was not worried, and said, "By then, my laser materials will be put into production, so it won't be a problem."

"That's good." Zhao Bowen was relieved and said, "I'm calling today to tell you about this. As long as you have the numbers. In addition, when your laser material is put into production, remember to tell me, we will form a delegation to come Participate in the commissioning ceremony."

"No way? You guys like doing face-saving projects too much, don't you?" Ye Chen was surprised.

"Boy, what are you talking about? Do you know what laser material means? Your laser material is better than ours, and we need to purchase in large quantities." Zhao Bowen's voice was high.

The performance of Ye Chen's laser materials is much better than that of the military. It is reasonable for the military to purchase large quantities for special purposes.

"Alright then." Ye Chen agreed.

The two talked for a while, then hung up the phone.

Just after hanging up, Xiao Lingyue called again, Ye Chen was a little confused, what's the matter?
