A Survey of Al7075 Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites
Rajendra.S.K | Ramesha.C.M
Abstract: A composite material is a combination of two or more chemically distinct and insoluble phases, its properties and structural performance are superior to those of the constituents acting independently. Metals and ceramics, as well, can be embedded with particles or fibers, to improve their properties, these combinations are known as Metal-Matrix composites. Aluminum 7075 alloy constitutes a very important engineering material widely employed in the aircraft and aerospace industry for the manufacturing of different parts and components. It is due to its high strength to density ratio that it a sought after metal matrix composite. In this paper we present a survey of Al 7075 Metal Matrix Composites.
