Aluminum matrix composites

Aluminum matrix composites are materials made by combining aluminum with other stronger or more durable substances, called reinforcements, like ceramic fibers or particles. These reinforcements enhance aluminum’s properties, making it stronger, lighter, and more resistant to heat and wear. Such composites are used in industries like aerospace, automotive, and sports equipment where high performance and lightweight materials are crucial. The reinforced aluminum retains its lightweight nature but gains improved strength and durability, providing better performance for demanding applications.
