A number of processes are used for the preparation of composite materials depending on the required properties and choice of material system. Some of these are mentioned here such as Al-SiC, Al-Al 2 O 3 , Mg-SiC, Mg-Al 2 O 3 of high specific strength , stiffness, temperature resistance, low thermal expansion coefficient, wear resistance and thermal conductivity are prepared by fusion infiltration, extrusion, forging, gravity and die casting while PbC and Pb-Al 2 O 3 for high stiffness and creep resistance are prepared by fusion infiltration only [13]. Cu-W for burn up resistance and Pb-C and Brass-Teflon for load carrying capacity and wear resistance are prepared by powder metallurgy and infiltration. Similarly Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) for Al-Al 2 O 3 , High Pressure Torsion (HPT) for Cu-Fe composite, Hot pressing for Cu-Al 2 O 3 composite, hot extrusion for Mg-Al 2 O 3 , Sintering for Cu-MgO, Microwave sintering for Co-WC, Plasma spraying for Al-CNT, High velocity oxyfuel spraying (HVOS) for Ni-Al 2 O 3 , Cold spraying for Co-WC. Some other techniques such as spark plasma sintering, sol-gel and electrodeposition are also available for the preparation of metal matrix nanocomposites.
