Ostermann, M., Schodl, J., Lieberzeit, P. A., Bilotto, P., & Valtiner, M. (2023). Lightning Strike Protection: Current Challenges and Future Possibilities. Materials, 16(4), Article 1743. https://doi.org/10.3390/ma16041743
An airplane is statistically struck by lightning every year. The need for lightweight aircraft to reduce the production of carbon dioxide has significantly reduced the presence of metals in favour of composites, resulting in lower lightning strike protection efficiency. In this perspective, we critically review the state of technologies in lightning strike protection solutions based on carbon materials, graphene, and MXenes. Furthermore, we comment on possible future research directions in the field.
