ABSTRACT:

The Aluminium alloy has excellent properties such as high thermal conductivity and low density. These properties make its application wide in the field of automotive, aerospace and mineral processing industries to make their products .In spite of these properties the main drawback of aluminium alloys are poor wear resistance behavior, harness and strength. To overcome this drawback, these types of alloys are reinforced with some other materials so that its hardness, Young’s modulus and abrasion wear resistance can increased to the desired limit. This paper presents an overview of different reinforced materials in Aluminium Metal Matric Composites (AMMCs) system and their effect on different properties.
