Abstract

The inclusion of agricultural wastes in aluminium-based metal matrix composites (AMMC) is gaining popularity because this will strengthen particulate matter present in AMMC, improving the composite materials' structural characteristics. Furthermore, by putting such agro-industrial residues to good use, not just save money on manufacture, but also lessen the environmental pollution. The synthesizing techniques of industrial and agro-industrial wastes loaded AMMC, as well as their mechanical, corrosion, and physical characteristics, are described in this article. This research discusses the possibilities for innovative filler particles that are low-cost, easy to access and have physical and mechanical characteristics compared to traditional particles. The mechanical, physical, thermal, and corrosion characteristics of the composites improved as an outcome of such enhancements.
