Young's modulus versus density for engineering materials and cellular solids. Cellular solids allow the creation of unprecedented strength- and stiffness-per-weight structures by using high-performance constituent materials such as composites or technical ceramics, and by producing highly coordinated periodic frameworks. Below 10 kg/m3, these solids are considered “ultralight,” where their stiffness approaches that of elastomers, but with a significantly reduced weight.
