METAL MATRIX HYBRID LAYERED COMPOSITE MATERIALS

Reducing the weight of components is a key goal in different industrial sectors. This leads to an increase in the application areas of fiber composites for primary structural components. Aiming at this goal, a new lightweight fiber-metal laminate composites have been developed. Fiber-metal laminate composites are one of such materials that have been widely investigated for their performance compared to existing materials. Depending on the type of matrix and fiber materials used in the industry, various types of fiber-metal laminate composites are available. In this article, the properties of these materials are examined in detail. Keywords: Composite materials, ARALL, GLARE, CARALL
