PCC-Advanced Forming Technology 70% AlSiC Metal Matrix Composite
Categories:	Metal; Metal Matrix Composite
Material Notes:	AlSiC metal matrix composites are formed by pressure infiltrating molten aluminum into silicon carbide preforms. This method of casting is typically used in applications where solution requirements include high strength, lightweight, custom CTE and high thermal conductivity. PCC offers AlSiC with a composition varying between 30% to 74% silicon carbide by volume, depending on the application. This flexible material system allows PCC Composites to produce a part that can be tailored to exact solution requirements. Infomation provided by PCC-Advanced Forming Technology.
