Summary:The metal matrix composites have drawn focus from the many of industries owing to their exciting mechanical, structural properties and micro-structures. The performance advantage of MMCs is their tailored thermo- physical and mechanical properties. These properties are ideally suited for application in automotive, aviation, space and electronic sectors. MMCs can be fabricated through wide range of manufacturing methods including liquid metallurgy and powder metallurgy, deposition of matrix. Among these techniques, stir casting can produce near-net shape and has been proven to be economical and flexible method to fabricate MMCs. Achieving optimal range of mechanical properties of hybrid MMCS have ever been a challenge for researchers. This research paper discusses about research studies on fabrication of hybrid MMCS via different fabrication techniques.
