Preface

Metal matrix composites (MMC) have been used in industrial forms for several decades; however, they continue improving. MMC usually consist of two different phases: one phase is a matrix (usually a metal) and the other is a reinforcement (usually a ceramic or a metal). These two phases are mixed by an appropriate technique in order to obtain a homogeneous material with specific properties that are different from the two monolithic materials. MMC are mainly used in the automotive, sporting, and spatial industries, although some are used in various high-temperature applications. MMC may be designed and produced to obtain certain mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties for specific applications. For example, high-temperature MMC can be used in automotive engine components, turbines
