Abstract

This present mini review article elucidates the role of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) particulates in enhancing the properties of aluminum matrix composites (AMCs). The article delves into various methodologies for incorporating hBN, such as powder metallurgy and stir casting, emphasizing theoretical aspects and process parameters. It synthesizes data from numerous studies to illustrate improvements in mechanical and tribological properties imparted by hBN. Furthermore, the article provides a theoretical analysis of the distribution of hBN within the aluminum matrix and its impact on composite performance. Future research directions are outlined, including exploration of novel composite materials and advanced manufacturing techniques. The environmental implications of utilizing hBN in AMCs are also discussed, highlighting sustainability and recyclability concerns. This review is a significant resource for researchers and industry professionals in material science, offering insights into current trends and future potentials of hBN-enhanced AMCs.
