Effects Of Porosity On Mechanical Properties Of Metal Matrix Composite: An Overview

Porosity in cast metal matrix composite (MMC) has been known as a defect affecting the enhancement of strength, particularly in particle-reinforced MMC. From previous reviews, among the causes of porosity formation are air bubbles entering the melt matrix material, water vapour on the particles surf...
