Description
Summary:In order to meet the demands of light weight high performance of materials in aerospace, automotive, marine and other devices, Aluminium matrix composites (AMCs) are developed. The combinations of matrix, reinforcement and processing route helps in proper bonding and uniform distribution in the matrix can be customized by the AMC’s. The properties of AMCs are considered to be the best alternatives for making light weight and high strength applications. AMCs can be prepared by different methods with various reinforcements which are usually metallic compounds of oxygen, carbon, boron, nitrogen and their combinations. Due to its very good stiffness, hardness and wear withstand, high temperature applications aluminium diborides (AlB 2 ) holds attention in metal matrix composite. The paper tries to explore the capabilities of combing aluminium diboride reinforced AMCs with various methods.
