Abstract

Abstract The need of light weighted materials has led to the use of composites like aluminium (Al) metal matrix composites (AMMCs) for advanced material performance. These days the AMMCs have been considered as the most potential candidate for structural and functional applications. AMMCs composite materials are used in marine, defence, automotive, aerospace, and heat prone areas. Stir casting method is prominent technique for developing metal matrix composites (MMCs) due to its easiness and production at reasonable price with bulk manufacturing competency. This review article contains substantial aspects of stir casting route like; mechanical properties, effect of various reinforcement, various challenges and future research potential in the development of composites.
