Abstract：The research of aviation materials plays an important role in supporting and ensuring the development of aviation technology, and is the basis of aviation modernization and high-tech development. Modern aviation industry has put forward higher requirements on the performance of aviation materials in many aspects such as structure and function. The application of composites can well meet these modern needs. Nano-carbon composites can maximize the excellent mechanical and functional properties of nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes and graphene. Therefore, nano-carbon composites show excellent performance in various aspects such as structural lightweight design, electromagnetic shielding, stealth and heat insulation in the aviation industry. This paper systematizes the important achievements made by domestic and foreign researchers on the structure and functional properties of nano-carbon composites. Compared with conventional metal materials, the research and development of nano-carbon composites provides a feasible development path for realizing the structure–function–intelligence integration of materials.
