Abstract Scope |
Globally there has been a noticeable wave to shift to green materials for purpose of sustainable and climate-friendly development. The emergence of metal-matrix composites contributed in a small way to this revolution. In this presentation, the potential for metal-matrix composites to aid in achieving sustainable and eco-friendly development goals will be highlighted. The family of metal-matrix composites is gaining increased attention among the scientific research and industrial communities for use in applications due to their advantages of being eco-friendly and sustainable coupled with acceptable combination of physical and mechanical properties. The sustainable development goals can be made possible by applying metal matrix composite technology to both recyclable materials and materials having light weight. This would result in replacing the existing material by metal matrix composites having fewer energy inputs for manufacturing and better characteristics. The interest of the end user on climate-friendly materials and related technologies will be highlighted |
