The book looks into the recent advances in the ex-situ production routes
and properties of aluminum and magnesium based metal matrix
nanocomposites (MMNCs), produced either by liquid or semi-solid state
methods. It comprehensively summarizes work done in the last 10 years
including the mechanical properties of different
matrix/nanoreinforcement systems. The book also addresses future
research direction, steps taken and missing developments to achieve the
full industrial exploitation of such composites. The content of the book
appeals to researchers and industrial practitioners in the area of
materials development for metal matrix nanocomposites and its
applications.
