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.

“…The Taguchi technique is applied for optimization of process parameters and the determination of their effects on target parameters. Jayasathyakawin et al [16] reported the effects of ZnO addition on the wear properties of Mg−Al matrix composites by using the Taguchi method. They found that the applied load significantly affected the wear rate, but with respect to COF, ZnO reinforcement inclusion affected the COF when compared with the load.…”

The present article describes the tribological properties of Mg-based hybrid composites reinforced with graphite nanofiber (GNF) and alumina short fiber (Al2O3sf) that were investigated. The Mg/GNF/Al2O3sf hybrid composites with varying volume fraction of fiber (10 vol.%, 15 vol.%, 20 vol.%) were developed. SEM observations indicate that the GNF cluster distributions within the array of the Al2O3sf network are found to be relatively good. The Taguchi design of the experiment has been applied to conduct the wear test, and the statistical analysis of variance (ANOVA) has been used to evaluate the influence of wear test parameters on the wear loss and coefficient of friction (COF) of the composites. The influence of wear test parameters such as volume fraction of fiber (VF), applied load (AL), sliding distance (SD), and sliding speed (SP) on the wear loss and COF of composites was analyzed under dry sliding conditions. The results of ANOVA indicate that the sliding distance was found to be the prominent factor affecting wear loss, and the applied load influenced the COF most significantly. Furthermore, the composites with 20 vol.% of fiber had lower wear loss than those with 10 vol.% and 15 vol.% of fiber. The COF of composites with 15 vol.% of fiber was found to be slightly lower compared to the 10 vol.% and 20 vol.% of fiber cases. The results imply that the hybridization of GNFs and Al2O3sf, as well as the formation of Mg17Al12 and Al2MgC2 precipitates enhanced the tribological properties of the Mg hybrid composites.
