Review on Fabrication of Aluminium Metal Matrix Composite
Keywords:
MMC (Metal Matrix Composite), AMC (Aluminium Matrix Composite)Abstract
Engineering works are full of exploration and always seeking for the better material to build with. The properties that are shown by already existing pure materials have their own limitations in terms of strength to weight ratio. Thus, the composite materials are used in many engineering applications due to their excellent properties. The sandwich composite materials replace the metals owing to their excellent strength with low weight. This work gives an introduction about Metal Matrix Composite to fabricate the composite of Aluminium with other constituents. Fabrication is not the only part, further AMC (Aluminium Matrix Composite) is tested for different aspects to achieve the required tailored properties. Various tests refer to mechanical strength testing of the material and investigation of the matrix at micro level which is known as Micro Structural Investigation. SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) and XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) are the test and analyses which are performed to obtain the best results in machining and smoothness in fabrication.
