Abstract : The goal of travelling faster than five times the speed ofsound, or hypersonic travel, has enormous potential to transform global transportation, defence capabilities, and space access. However, materials and structures face severe obstacles because to harsh aerothermal conditions inherent in high Mach number trajectories. This work focuses on new approaches to do research for ceramics, composites, and refractory alloys that are essential for building hypersonic vehicles. Essential design concepts for primary structures, heat shielding, and propulsion systems are covered, highlighting the critical role that theory and computation play in comprehending the links between structure, property, and processing. The remarkable high-temperature capabilities, stiffness, strength, and corrosion resistance of ceramic materials are highlighted in the study as reasons for theirincreasing importance in aircraft applications. Based on their distinct features, titanium alloys, nickel aluminides, metal- matrix composites, carbon-carbon, and ceramic-matrix composites stand out as top choices for a high temperature. In pursuit of lightweight, high- performance materials for hypersonic travel, this paper summarises ongoing researchefforts, evaluates the state of the art, offers insights into technological hurdles, and identifies areas that require future improvement. To explore the complex field of hypersonicmaterials design and selection in this research, this paper hope to shed light on the critical role that materials science plays in pushing the boundaries of aerospace technology by investigating the special difficulties presented by hypersonic flight as well as the characteristics and potential of various material classes.
