Abstract

<jats:p>Composites are in high demand in the industry right now because of their low weight, wear resistance, stiffness, and high strength. The functional and structural characteristics were enhanced in response to industrial requirements. Metal matrix composites (MMCs) have been popular in engineering structural applications due to their high specific strength and are rapidly being viewed as a viable alternative to traditional materials, especially in the automobile sector. Particulate reinforcement is one of the ways for improving the composites' strength, ductility, and toughness. The market for Aluminium Hybrid Metal Matrix Composites has risen in recent years as a result of their improved mechanical characteristics, which meet the needs of sophisticated technical applications. The choice of an appropriate mix of reinforcing materials has a significant impact on the performance of these materials. Carbon Nanotubes, Silicon Carbide, Boron Carbide are best among the reinforcing materials. The mechanical, morphological, and tribological evaluations of these five reinforcements were thoroughly investigated in this study.</jats:p>
