Metal matrix composites (MMCs) corrosion nature is discussed with significance in regard to MMCs corrosion behavior with MMCs electrochemical and chemical properties. Galvanic corrosion between base metal and reinforcement influences the corrosion process in MMCs. The corrosion behaviour of Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites (AMMCs) reinforced with carbide and other solid waste is reviewed. AMMCs are capable of admitting the assault of corrosion over the base metal. AMMC’s corrosion type of behaviour is localized with galvanic corrosion, the intermetallic phase between base alloy and reinforcement, micro cracks, voids, are the corrosion-influencing factors. The corrosive action of solid carbide-reinforced AMMCs (Aluminum Metal Matrix Composites) and other solid waste is analysed. The AMMCs have strong mechanical and tribological characteristics but no achievement in the effects of corrosion. Coatings methods are used to enhance the behaviour of AMMCs in corrosion.

Light weight Aluminium alloys are extensively used in aircraft, supercars, and marine applications owing to its corrosion resistance and density. However, the mechanical properties like stiffness, tensile properties and tribological characteristics are far inferior than steels and titanium alloys. The tribomechanical properties of existing Aluminium alloys can be improved by adding suitable reinforcement agent and heat treatment techniques. In this review, effect of different reinforcement on mechanical properties and tribological characteristics of Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites (AMMC) were discussed in detail. Also, various fabrication processing techniques like solid state processing, liquid state processing and in-situ processing on tribological behavior of AMMC is discussed.
