Ringkasan: Metal Matrix Composites are materials made by combining a metal (like aluminum or titanium) with reinforcements (such as ceramics or fibers) to improve strength, durability, and performance. In structural applications, MMCs are used in aerospace, automotive, and industrial fields because they are strong, lightweight, and resistant to heat and wear, making them ideal for high-performance environments. In biomedical applications, MMCs are used for implants (like bones and teeth) because they are biocompatible, durable, and can support bone growth, improving healing and long-term use in the human body. Overall, MMCs are advanced materials that enhance both engineering performance and medical solutions, though they can be expensive and complex to produce.
