“…Over the last two decade, the application of nano and micro-sized ceramics such as alumina (Al 2 O 3 ), MgO nanoparticle [9], boron carbide [10] and silicon carbide (SiC) [11] to aluminum metal matrix composites have become popular reinforcing phases, since these hard phases can lead to an increase in flow stress from the matrix by load transfer across a strong interface from the matrix to the reinforcement [12]. An example of the typical microstructure of a particle reinforced aluminum metal matrix composite is presented in Figure 1 and shows an Al 2 O 3 particulate reinforced Al-6061 MMC.…”

“…Thermal fatigue may also occur due to a small mismatch of the coefficient of thermal expansion between the silicon substrate and the heat sink. These problems can be solved by using MMCs with matching coefficients (e.g., Al with boron [10] or graphite fibers and Al with SiC particles [11]).…”

“…Composite Materials are developed due to the more demand on materials to increases the overall performance of aerospace and automotive component. Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites (AMC) is mostly preferable in the industrial needs due to its cost and mechanical property [1]. Reinforcement particles like Aluminium oxide, Silicon carbide and graphite in fraction ranging from few percent to 60% in AMC could improve properties of metal [2].…”

Abstract: Aluminium Metal Matrix composition were used in application of the aerospace and automobiles because of its strength and stiffness. Although tribological characteristics of the materials like wear resistance is low. Many research has been carried out in the particle reinforcement with the Aluminium Metal Matrix. In this paper, the several reinforced particles with the aluminium matrix were reviewed. The reinforced materials like Tungsten carbide, graphite or hybrid reinforced materials were analyzed. The stir casting process is the common technique to fabricate these materials. The reinforcement of graphite particles in aluminium materials were shows the considerable mechanical properties.

“…[1][2][3] In recent years, the advancement in aerospace, automotive, and shipbuilding industries has spurred the development of Al matrix composites with superior functional properties. [4][5][6] Graphene is a two-dimensional carbon material formed through sp 2 bonds. The intrinsic structural character of graphene endows it with many favorable properties, e.g., high interfacial affinity for metal based on its high specic surface area, excellent mechanical properties due to the sp 2 bonds, and attractive abilities in impeding atomic diffusion, which can be ascribed to its planar structure.…”
