Abstract: Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) are produced by the combinations of two more materials which exhibit better properties than obtained from single. Due to these enhanced properties, it is well suitable in many engineering applications namely aerospace, automobile and structural areas. However processing of MMCs and their properties are depends on the types of fabrication methods employed. This paper aims to discuss about the research work done on synthesis of MMCs through various processing routes. The mechanism of various techniques, the process involved and the parameter selection for each technique were reported. The comparison of fabrication techniques based on different particulars also discussed.
Keywords: MMC, Fabrication, Application.
Scope of the Article: Composite Materials
