INTRODUCTION
Conventional monolithic materials have limitations in achieving good combination of strength, stiffness, toughness and density.
To overcome these shortcomings and to meet the ever increasing demand of modern day technology, composites are most promising materials of recent interest.
Metal matrix composites (MMCs) possess significantly improved properties including high specific strength; specific modulus, damping capacity and good wear resistance compared to unreinforced alloys.

CLASSIFICATION OF METAL MATRIX COMPOSITE

METAL MATRIX COMPOSITES (MMCs)
A metal matrix composite (MMC) is composite material with at least two constituent parts, one being a metal.
The other material may be a different metal or another material, such as a ceramic or organic compound.
When at least three materials are present, it is called a hybrid composite.

COMPOSITION
MMCs are made by dispersing a reinforcing material into a metal matrix. The reinforcement surface can be coated to prevent a chemical reaction with the matrix.
For example, carbon fibers are commonly used in aluminum matrix to synthesize composites show.i.ng low density and high strength.

MATRIXThe matrix is the monolithic material into which the
reinforcement is embedded, and is completely continuous.
This means that there is a path through the matrix to any point in the material, unlike two materials sandwiched together.
The matrix is usually a lighter metal such as aluminum, magnesium, or titanium, and provides a compliant support for the reinforcement.

REINFORCEMENT
The reinforcement material is embedded into the matrix.
It is used to change physical properties such as wear resistance, friction coefficient, or thermal conductivity.
The reinforcement can be either continuous, or discontinuous.

Reinforcements for metal matrix composites have a manifold demand profile,
which is determined by production and processing and by the matrix system of
the composite material. The following demands are generally applicable:
Low density,
Mechanical compatibility (a thermal expansion coefficient which is low but
Chemical compatibility,
Thermal stability,
High Young’s modulus,
High compression and tensile strength,
Good process ability,
Economic efficiency.

THE DISADVANTAGES OF MMCs
Higher cost of some material systems .
Relatively immature technology .
Complex fabrication methods for fiber-reinforced systems (except for casting).

CONCLUSION
Metal matrix composites offer sufficient promise and have reached the
degree of maturity that indicates an expansion of their use. To realize
their full potential however these composites deserve greater attention
and support.
The numbers of MMCs currently are in various stages of development:
these are boron/aluminum, beryllium/titanium, and boron/titanium,
graphite/aluminum, and supper alloys reinforced with refractory metal.
The boron/reinforced aluminum system is in most advanced stage of
development and properly data for this system are sufficient for design
in structural application.
