Practice:
Aerospace systems designers must ensure that the most reliable material is used to meet the design requirements for aerospace systems. Test results regarding corrosion resistance, susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking, flammability, toxicity, thermal vacuum stability, and compatibility with rocket engine fuels, oxidizers, and hydraulic fluids; as well as extensive chemical and physical properties data; are included in the Materials and Processes Technical Information System (MAPTIS). This information is used to assist the aerospace designer in identifying the most reliable material candidates for space systems.
