“…The authors indicated that the presence of 10 wt.% LBWA particles in the composites will provide the highest tensile strength, hardness, and wear resistance. Anilkumar et al [ 91 ] fabricated aluminum metal-matrix composites (AMMC), wherein the Al-14.2Si-0.3Mg alloy was reinforced with coarse TiC particulates of 10 wt.% content. The MMCs were subjected to solutionizing treatment at a temperature of 525 °C for 12 h and were then quenched in water to reach room temperature.…”

This review article focuses on the aluminum-based metal matrix composites (Al-based MMCs). Studies or investigations of their mechanical and tribological properties performed by researchers worldwide in the past are presented in detail. The processing techniques and applications for Al-based MMCs are also documented here. A brief background on the composite materials, their constituents, and their classification, as well as the different matrix materials and particulates used in Al-based MMCs, can be found in this review. Then, an overview of dual-particle-size reinforced composites, heat treatment of Al alloys, and temper designations used in heat treatment are also included. In addition, the factors influencing the mechanical and wear properties of Al-based MMCs are discussed. The primary objective is that both present and future researchers and investigators will be assisted by the comprehensive knowledge compiled in this article to further explore and work towards the betterment of society in general.

“…Shankar et al [27] found the influence of the T6 heat treatment on the tribological behavior of cast Al-12.2Si-0.3Mg-0.2Sr alloy by the response surface methodology. In another similar work, Anilkumar et al [28] checked the heat treatment impact on the wear behavior of Al-14.2Si-0.3Mg-TiC composite, again using the response surface methodology. Their results depicted that by increasing the ageing temperature, the ageing time and the load, a variation was observed in wear properties of the material.…”

Aluminum alloys, due to appropriate strength to weight ratio, are widely used in various industries, including automotive engines. This type of structures, due to high-temperature operations, are affected by the creep phenomenon; thus, the limited lifetime is expected for them. Therefore, in designing these types of parts, it is necessary to have sufficient information about the creep behavior and the material strength. One way to improve the properties is to add nanoparticles and fabricate a metal-based nano-composite. In the present research, failure mechanisms and creep properties of piston aluminum alloys were experimentally studied. In experiments, working conditions of combustion engine pistons were simulated. The material was composed of the aluminum matrix, which was reinforced by silicon oxide nanoparticles. The stir-casting method was used to produce the nano-composite by aluminum alloys and 1 wt.% of nanoparticles. The extraordinary model included the relationships between the stress and the temperature on the strain rate and the creep lifetime, as well as various theories such as the regression model. For this purpose, the creep test was performed on the standard sample at different stress levels and a specific temperature of 275 ℃. By plotting strain-time and strain rate-time curves, it was found that the creep lifetime decreased by increasing stress levels from 75 MPa to 125 MPa. Moreover, by comparing the creep test results of nanoparticle-reinforced alloys and nanoparticle-free alloys, 40% fall was observed in the reinforced material lifetime under 75 MPa. An increase in the strain rate was also seen under the mentioned stress. It is noteworthy that under 125 MPa, the creep lifetime and the strain rate of the reinforced alloy increased and decreased, respectively, compared to the piston alloy. Finally, by analyzing output data by the Minitab software, the sensitivity of the results to input parameters was investigated.

“…Aluminum-based composite materials are among the most widely used metal matrix composite materials as they have a low density, a high strength-to-weight ratio, good electrical and thermal conductivities, a low cost, and a stable performance. They are widely used in the aerospace and automotive industries [1][2][3][4][5]. Modern carbon materials, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene, have a two-dimensional nanometer-size structure, with high strength, a high elastic modulus, and a good thermal conductivity [6][7][8][9].…”

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are a good reinforcement for metal matrix composite materials; they can significantly improve the mechanical, wear-resistant, and heat-resistant properties of the materials. Due to the differences in the atomic structure and surface energy between CNTs and aluminum-based materials, the bonding interface effect that occurs when nanoscale CNTs are added to the aluminum alloy system as a reinforcement becomes more pronounced, and the bonding interface is important for the material mechanical performance. Firstly, a comparative analysis of the interface connection methods of four CNT-reinforced aluminum matrix composites is provided, and the combination mechanisms of various interface connection methods are explained. Secondly, the influence of several factors, including the preparation method and process as well as the state of the material, on the material bonding interface during the composite preparation process is analyzed. Furthermore, it is explained how the state of the bonding interface can be optimized by adopting appropriate technical and technological means. Through the study of the interface of CNT-reinforced aluminum-based composite materials, the influence of the interface on the overall performance of the composite material is determined, which provides directions and ideas for the preparation of future high-performance CNT-reinforced aluminum-based composite materials.
