Interface is a key factor affecting the comprehensive performance of magnesium matrix composites, and how to carry out interfacial modulation has been a hot research topic in magnesium matrix composites. Focusing on three types of interface structures of magnesium matrix composites (coherent, semi-coherent and incoherent) and two key issues (interfacial wettability and interfacial reaction) affecting the interface properties, the research progress of interface optimization schemes was reviewed in this paper and the guidelines for the design and regulation of interfacial structures to achieve good interfacial bonding were proposed:good wettability and slight interfacial reaction. In view of the improvement of interface properties of magnesium matrix composites, the addition of rare earth elements can be considered in the future to purify the interface and improve wettability. The matrix and reinforcement are selected according to engineering needs to obtain composite materials with excellent performance in cer
