Abstract:Metal matrix nanocomposites (MMNCs) are becoming the materials of choice in a variety of engineering and medical applications owing to their exhibiting a superior combination of targeted properties. Amongst different MMNCs, aluminum-based composites are of special importance. In many applications, a relatively inferior wear property limits the use of this valued metal in practice. However, reinforcing aluminum and its alloys by ceramics, carbon allotropes, etc., may circumvent these limitations to a great exte… Show more
