Density Adjusted Properties of Aluminum MMCs Compared to Steel, Titanium and Aluminum

density-adjusted-properties-of-aluminum-mmcs

One of the clear advantages of Al MMCs compared to conventional metallic materials is greatly enhanced strength and stiffness. These property gains are achieved without impacting material density, so the specific properties of Al MMC are dramatically increased. Al MMCs are also isotropic composite materials. Their design space is not dependent on reinforcement orientation.
