Abstract

Metal matrix composites (MMCs) exhibit superior mechanical and wear resistant properties, allowing them to be deployed in a variety of manufacturing applications, including structural, automotive, aerospace domains etc. Aluminium as the matrix material has numerous applications due to its high strength-to-weight ratio. The inclusion of hard ceramic particles in aluminium alloys increases overall strength and wear-resistance. It is important to know about different constituents of composite materials. In the present review paper an attempt has been made to highlight important constituents of metal matrix composites and their applications. Also, this review paper covers the various manufacturing techniques of metal composites.
