Abstract—Aluminium metal matrix composites are widely used in engineering applications, specially automobile, aerospace, marine and mineral processing industries owing to their improved wear properties compared to conventional monolithic aluminium alloys. Presently hybrid composites plays vital role in engineering application. The researchers who developed composites, were subjected to many characterisations, specifically wear behaviour of these composites were explored to a maximum extent by number of researchers for the past 25 years. In this review an attempt has been made to consolidate some of the aspects of mechanical and wear behaviour of Al-MMCs and the prediction of the Mechanical and Tribological properties of Aluminium MMCs fabricated using Powder Metallurgy Technique.

Index Terms—Al-MMCs, Density, Hardness, Mechanical properties, Wear, Powder metallurgy
