Abstract

Aluminum alloys utilization has been continuously increasing in marine, aerospace and automotive industries, owing to its perceptible properties with respect to optimum weight density ratio, good ductility and plasticity etc. Nevertheless, the low hardness, low tensile strength and poor tribological behavior limit its usage. To overcome these shortcomings, different reinforcements (e.g. silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, titanium, grtable aphite, industrial and agriculture waste particles etc.) are incorporated with aluminum alloys. The present study is the compilation of the reported literature pertaining to aluminum based metal matrix composites (AMMC’s), highlighting the effect of several type of matrix metals and reinforcements on the mechanical and tribological performances. The experimental results showed substantial improvement in the overall behavior of AMMC’s as associated to monolithic base metals. The different routes of AMMC’s development, process parameters, key findings and their inference on their properties are summarized in the current review article, which will help the researchers during the selection of process parameters, reinforcements for the fabrication of HAMMC’s & AMMC’s.
