| Abstract [eng] |
Composites are very significant materials for a large variety of applications in various engineering areas because of their enhanced mechanical, physical, and machining properties. These materials have been endless of applications because of their behavior, mainly mechanical, compared to other materials since it has demonstrated less density and significantly higher resistance. The composite materials have many benefits and excellent properties in comparison to conventional materials, which make the application of composites in many areas. More research and studies are being carried out to improve the characteristics and manufacturing techniques further, to promote the potential implementation of composites. In recent years, the application and development of MMCs have increased in many engineering fields. With the arrival of innovative technologies, high research activities and the development of different processing techniques, composites with improved properties become attractive materials for engineering applications. A wide array of metals, especially low-density metals or alloys, are generally selected as the matrix material for the composite. This research article provides a brief overview of matrix materials generally used in composites, and types of composites, with their important aspects. |
