Fabrication method of aluminum matrix composite (Amcs): A review

Aluminium matrix composites (AMCs) are increasingly become attractive materials for advanced applications including aerospace and automotive applications because of their properties can be tailored through the addition of selected reinforcements. On viewing from both scientific and technological aspects, their excellent mechanical properties and relatively low production cost makes them a very viable candidate for a variety of applications. This paper focused on the suitable and common methods used to fabricate the AMCs such as powder metallurgy, stir-casting, squeeze casting and compo-casting method. The advantages and disadvantages of those fabrication methods are discovered through this paper
