Plot of Young's modulus vs density. The colors represent families of materials. An Ashby plot, named for Michael Ashby of Cambridge University, is a scatter plot which displays two or more properties of many materials or classes of materials. [5] These plots are useful to compare the ratio between different properties.
Michael Farries Ashby (born 20 November 1935) is a British metallurgical engineer. [3] He served as Royal Society Research Professor, and a Principal Investigator (PI) at the Engineering Design Centre at the University of Cambridge .

Ashby diagram of strength versus maximum service temperature. Taken from CES EduPack Material and Process Selection Charts. [1] There are several broad classes of materials available for use in creating a chemical reactor. Some examples include metals, glasses, ceramics, polymers, carbon, and composites. [2]
Specific modulus is a materials property consisting of the elastic modulus per mass density of a material. It is also known as the stiffness to weight ratio or specific stiffness. High specific modulus materials find wide application in aerospace applications where minimum structural weight is required.
