Paper Details

Composite materials or simply composites are combinations of materials. They are made up of combiningtwo or more materials in such a way that the resulting materials have certain design properties on improved properties.Conventional materials like Steel, Brass, Aluminium etc will fail without any indication. Cracks initiation, propagationwill takes place within a short span. Now a day to overcome this problem, conventional materials are replaced byComposite materials. The potential has been recognized in the aluminium-based materials. Aluminium and its versionshave been already widely used in automotive, aerospace industry; however, their utility spectrum still avoids thetribologically sensitive purposes. Modern composite materials constitute a significant proportion of the engineeredmaterials market ranging from everyday products to sophisticated niche applications. While composites have alreadyproven their worth as weight-saving materials, the current challenge is to make them cost effective. In this paper thepotential of use of metal matrix composite (MMC) with particular reference to the advance engineering industry.Initially, the necessary properties are identified, then, the work explores the investigations done on different MetalMatrix composites.
