Ferrous-metal matrix composites: a review on status, scope and challenges
The present work is an effort to culminate the status, the scopes and the challenges in the development of ferrous metal matrix composites (FMMCs). The FMMCs are older but relatively few in application as ompared to the non-ferrous metal matrix composites (NFMMCs). Therefore, this stimulates the exploration of the reasons behind the scarcity of literature and field applications of FMMCs, which must be investigated critically. Powder metallurgy is the widely used process for fabricating iron and steel-based FMMCs by reinforcing particulates. At the same time, the in-situ method has been used for the fabrication of cast iron-based FMMCs. The main characteristics considered during the designing and the fabrication of FMMCs are wear resistance and improved specific mechanical properties. To fabricate cheaper and eco-friendly FMMCs, traditionally used costly reinforcements such as SiC, WC, TiC, SiO2, TiO2, TiB2 are required to be replaced by inexpensive industrial wastes like red-mud, fly-ashes and grinding swarf. The data extracted from the web of science exhibited that the FMMCs have been researched less than the NFMMCs. However, the increasing number of research papers on FMMCs indicates a bright future. FMMCs are going to be a favourite topic among researchers and manufacturers. Higher strengths, wear resistance, dimensional stability at elevated temperatures and most importantly, lower cost will put forward the FMMCs as a stiffer competitor of NFMMCs. For mass production of FMMCs for engineering applications, challenges like oxidation and higher weight still require special research efforts. A comparison of various specific properties of FMMCs and NFMMCs revealed that the iron and steel matrix composites could replace the aluminium matrix composite by including lighter reinforcements like coal fly ash.
