4. Uses
Beryllium and beryllium-based materials offer a remarkable range of properties that can be used both in cutting-edge technologies and in the manufacture of everyday products
4.1 Beryllium metal
Certain uses are linked to mechanical properties. Specific modulus (Young's modulus divided by density), which characterizes beryllium's rigidity, and hardness (six times greater than that of steel) form a set of properties that are very important for the aerospace industry, which requires lightweight structures that remain rigid under high loads. These properties are particularly appreciated in...
