“…The most used metal matrix binds are aluminium, magnesium and their alloys. The properties such as lightness and ductility of these materials construct it as the most often used matrix materials in the production of MMC (Foltz & Blackmon, 1990). The composite mainly consists of one matrix and two or more reinforcements and is called hybrid composite.…”

Aluminium alloy related to Metal Matrix Composites (AMMC’s) have been achieve enormous comprehensive acknowledgment for aerospace and structural applications, due to its excellent corrosion resistant, good wear resistant, high strength and light weight. In this paper, the experimental study deals with investigation influence of reinforcement (Magnesium oxide and Silicon Carbide) particles on various mechanical properties of aluminium alloy (Al 6061). AMMC was fabricated by stir casting method. The exsitu method was used to fabricate because of its less complexity. The MMC specimens with different weight percentage of reinforcement particles such as 3%, 6% and 9% were prepared. After the fabrication, the ingots were machined for preparation of test samples. The tensile, compression, Impact and hardness test were taken to study the mechanical properties and effect of varying weight percentage of reinforcements. As the outcome, the tensile and compression strength were progressively increase with addition of magnesium oxide and silicon carbide.

Aluminium Metal Matrix composites have replaced the major conventional materials because of its superior mechanical properties such as high strength, lesser weight and good wear resistance. Aluminumsilicon (LM series) metal matrix composite can fulfil the needs of emerging trends in engineering and industrial advancements. The present study attempted to review the researches undergone on the influence of various reinforcements such as ZrO2, TiB2, AlB2, SiC, MoS2, B4C, etc., on LM based aluminium alloys on their properties like tensile and compression strength, hardness, impact strength. The methodology of various papers has been studied and the corresponding conclusion was included in this study.

“…MMCs provide higher operating temperature than their base metal, and they can be tailored to obtain improved strength, stiffness, thermal conductivity, abrasion resistance, creep resistance or dimensional stability. The incorporation of a high-performance second phase into a conventional material can produce features not obtainable from the individual constituents [3].…”

The corrosion resistance features of two different Metal Matrix Composites based on 6061 and 2618 aluminium alloys reinforced by 20% Al 2 O 3 particles by stir casting process, were studied in 3.5% NaCl and compared. The composites and their respective base alloys were characterised in terms of microstructure by optical and scanning electron microscopy and in terms of corrosion resistance by polarisation curves and electrochemical impedance. Results show how the presence of Al 2 O 3 has different effects depending on matrix composition. In 6061 MMC, Al 2 O 3 promotes the formation of Mg 2 Si which has a cathodic behaviour altering the pitting susceptibility of the composite. In 2618 MMC, the high content of Cu induces a strong uniform attack. The subsequent increase in the Open Circuit Potential caused a pitting attack.
