Abstract

This article includes a research on Metal matrix composites, as well as MMC production processes. The current advances in metal matrix fabrication processes are discussed in this research. Composites is examined engineered or naturally occurring materials constructed from two or more constituent materials with significantly differing physical or chemical characteristics that remain separate and distinct at the macroscopic or microscopic scale inside the completed structure are referred to as composites. MMCs are composed of a continuous metal matrix and one or more discontinuous reinforcing phases. Metal matrix composites are created using a variety of procedures, including liquid fabrication methods and solid manufacturing methods. Metal injection moulding, friction stir technique, mechanical alloying, squeeze casting technology, continuous binder-powder coating, and other production procedures are employed by researchers to manufacture metal matrix composites. A lot of work is being done in the field of MMC manufacturing methods, which has reduced their cost to an acceptable level when compared to those treated by powder metallurgy and spray casting.
