Metal matrix composites (MMCs) are frequently employed in various advanced industries due to their high modulus and strength, favorable wear and corrosion resistance, and other good properties at elevated temperatures. In recent decades, additive manufacturing (AM) technology has garnered attention as a potential way for fabricating MMCs. This article provides a comprehensive review of recent endeavors and progress in additive manufacturing of MMCs, encompassing available AM technologies, types of reinforcements, feedstock preparation, synthesis principles during the AM process, typical AM-produced MMCs, strengthening mechanisms, challenges and future interests. Compared to conventionally manufactured MMCs, AM-produced MMCs exhibit more uniformly distributed reinforcements and refined microstructure, resulting in comparable or even better mechanical properties. In addition, AM technology can produce bulk MMCs with significantly low porosity and fabricate geometrically complex MMC components and MMC lattice structures. As reviewed, many AM-produced MMCs, such as Al matrix composites, Ti matrix composites, Nickel matrix composites, Fe matrix composites, etc., have been successfully produced. The types and contents of reinforcements strongly influence the properties of AM-produced MMCs, the choice of AM technology, and the applied processing parameters. In these MMCs, four primary strengthening mechanisms have been identified: Hall-Petch strengthening, dislocation strengthening, load transfer strengthening, and Orowan strengthening. AM technologies offer advantages that enhance the properties of MMCs when compared with traditional fabrication methods. Despite the advantages above, further challenges of AM-produced MMCs are still faced, such as new methods and new technologies for investigating AM-produced MMCs, the intrinsic nature of MMCs coupled with AM technologies, and challenges in the AM processes. Therefore, the article concludes by discussing the challenges and future interests of additive manufacturing of MMCs.

“…Metal reinforcements cooperate with the generated secondary phase, which improves the toughness of the composite material due to their good wettability and inherent toughness. Therefore, it has the strengthening effect of both the particles and the second phase [5,43]. Recently, various metal-reinforced MMCs have been developed, such as Ti/Mg [44], Sb/Mg [45], NbB 2 /Mg [46], TC 4 /Mg [47].…”

Magnesium matrix composites are essential lightweight metal matrix composites, following aluminum matrix composites, with outstanding application prospects in automotive, aerospace lightweight and biomedical materials because of their high specific strength, low density and specific stiffness, good casting performance and rich resources. However, the inherent low plasticity and poor fatigue resistance of magnesium hamper its further application to a certain extent. Many researchers have tried many strengthening methods to improve the properties of magnesium alloys, while the relationship between wear resistance and plasticity still needs to be further improved. The nanoparticles added exhibit a good strengthening effect, especially the ceramic nanoparticles. Nanoparticle-reinforced magnesium matrix composites not only exhibit a high impact toughness, but also maintain the high strength and wear resistance of ceramic materials, effectively balancing the restriction between the strength and toughness. Therefore, this work aims to provide a review of the state of the art of research on the matrix, reinforcement, design, properties and potential applications of nano-reinforced phase-reinforced magnesium matrix composites (especially ceramic nanoparticle-reinforced ones). The conventional and potential matrices for the fabrication of magnesium matrix composites are introduced. The classification and influence of ceramic reinforcements are assessed, and the factors influencing interface bonding strength between reinforcements and matrix, regulation and design, performance and application are analyzed. Finally, the scope of future research in this field is discussed.

“…Compared to mechanical bonding, good metallurgical interfacial bonding helps to weaken the effect of the interface on load transfer, thus increasing the overall strength of the composite. Weak interfacial bonding, on the other hand, is prone to initiating cracking, which in turn leads to component failure under load, resulting in interfacial fracture, ceramic particle detachment, and interfacial corrosion damage, thus weakening the reinforcing effect of the ceramic particles and leading to the deterioration of the composites' abrasion and corrosion resistance [36]. Figure 8 shows the average grain size of TiC/17-4PH composites with different TiC additions in Figure 5 using ImageJ (1.54 d) statistics, where the measurement method is the linear intercept method, the values are the average of five measurements, and the red curve shows the trend of the average grain size.…”

In order to improve the performance of 17-4PH under wear conditions (e.g., gears, etc.) and reduce the cost of metal additive manufacturing, TiC needs to be added to 17-4PH to improve its wear resistance. Micron-sized TiC-reinforced 17-4PH stainless steel composites with different contents (0–15 wt%) have been prepared by fused filament fabrication 3D printing for the first time. The effects of TiC content on the structure and properties of composites were studied by XRD, SEM, and sliding wear. The obtained results show that the microstructure of TiC-reinforced 17-4PH stainless steel composites mainly consists of austenite. With the increase in TiC content, the grain size is obviously refined, and the average grain size decreases from 65.58 μm to 19.41 μm. The relative densities of the composites are maintained above 95% with the addition of TiC. The interfaces between TiC particles and the 17-4PH matrix are metallurgical bonds. The hardness of the composites increases and then decreases with increasing TiC content, and the maximum hardness (434 HV) is obtained after adding 10 wt.% of TiC content. The wear rate of the composites was reduced from 2.191 × 10−5 mm3 /(N‧m) to 0.509 × 10−5 mm3 /(N‧m), which is a 3.3-fold increase in wear resistance. The COF value declines with the addition of TiC. The reasons for the significant improvement in the composites’ performance are fine grain strengthening, solid solution strengthening, and second phase strengthening. The wear mechanisms are mainly abrasive and adhesive wear. Compared to the 10 wt% TiC composites, the 15 wt% TiC composites show limited improvement in wear resistance due to more microcracks and TiC agglomeration.
