Lithium is the least dense elemental metal. When alloyed with aluminum it creates a material that has a lower structural mass, but also is stronger and more strain-resistant than standard aluminum alloys. Understanding how the material performs under high-heat and high-stress conditions is the focus of a new Lightweight Innovations for Tomorrow (LIFT) initiative.
