A Review on Fabrication and Characteristics of Metal Matrix Composites Fabricated By Stir Casting

摘要

Need of new materials is always important in industries,better mechanical properties and lower in cost are the main parameters which attracts everyone to develop a new material.This need arises in the form of composite materials.This paper reviews about the composites,their existence,fabrication by stir casting and the characterization of metal matrix composites.Different fabrication techniques were mentioned which can be used for the manufacturing of metal matrix composites but specially focused on stir casting.Uses of stir caste in the various researches are shown in this paper and which gives us better idea to understand various parameters for stir caste like stirrer speed,melting temperature,spindle speed and percentage of reinforcement.Characterization of a metal is always important to describe its properties and which is described with different testing.It explains the revised property of metal matrix composites and that shows it is far better than the parent metal.
