Abstract


Hybrid composites comprising aluminum reinforced with ceramics have surfaced as a potential class of materials that exhibit improved mechanical and thermal characteristics. These composites have a diverse range of applications across multiple industries. The present study offers a thorough examination of recent scholarly investigations pertaining to such composites, with particular emphasis on their mechanical performance, thermal attributes, and interfacial characteristics. This paper offers an extensive evaluation of ceramic-reinforced aluminum composites, along with a discussion of potential solutions and prospects for addressing the existing limitations and challenges. This review explores emerging areas of research, encompassing interface engineering methodologies, sophisticated processing techniques, and the incorporation of innovative reinforcement substances. The present recommendations are geared towards augmenting the efficacy, dependability, and durability of hybrid composites comprising ceramic and aluminum reinforcements.
