Global Metal Matrix Composite Market Definition

Metal, alloy, or intermetallic compositions combined with different particles, whiskers, or continuous fibers are known as Metal Matrix Composite. They are made by stacking and gluing several layers of metals or alloys to increase strength and damage tolerance. They are intended to provide several advantages, including increased strength, improved wear and creep resistance, increased damping, and less thermal expansion. In addition, MMCs offer excellent shear strength, improved abrasion resistance, nonflammability, and little fuel and solvent attack, and may be made and treated using standard tools.

Due to MMCs’ ability to function in hot environments, they are also used in brake rotors, pistons, and other automotive parts. It, therefore, has a wide range of uses in the global aerospace, defense, electronics, marine, and packaging sectors. Due to their superior thermo-physical characteristics, such as a low coefficient of thermal expansion, a high degree of thermal conductivity, and increased mechanical characteristics, such as higher specific strength, better wear resistance, and specific modulus, Al and Cu reinforced by SiC are used in a variety of industries.
