This journal paper presents an in-depth exploration of Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs), a vital class of composite materials extensively employed in diverse sectors such as aerospace, automotive, defense, and marine due to their exceptional combination of high strength and reduced weight. The review focuses on various processing methods for MMCs, emphasizing the range of fabrication techniques available. The experimental evaluation of these composites is discussed, encompassing essential assessments like hardness, tensile strength, compression resistance, fatigue behavior, and tribological performance, all conducted in accordance with ASTM standards. The objective of the paper is to provide a thorough understanding of MMCs, from their fabrication processes to the systematic evaluation of their properties, contributing valuable insights to the field.
