Aluminium matrix composites belong to the family of materials whose mechanical, tribological, thermal andelectrical properties can be customized effectively. Most of the commercial work on MMCs has been highlighted onAluminium as the matrix material. The combination of light weight, environmental resistance and beneficialmechanical properties has made Aluminium alloys exceedingly popular; these properties also make Aluminium bestsuited for use as a matrix metal. The thermophysical properties of these composites can be tailor made and haveexcellent specific mechanical properties. These composites can be fabricated with ease. Aluminium matrix compositesreinforced with the particles of Silicon Carbide possess high yield strength, low coefficient of thermal expansion orthermal expansivity, high modulus of elasticity and excellent wear resistance by maintaining volume proportion up to20%. Aluminium hybrid composites can be customized to provide moderate Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE)and high thermal conductivity that are favorable for the applications pertaining to thermal management equipment.However, it is necessary to evaluate different percentage combinations of reinforcements with matrix Aluminium tocheck for thermal stability and to measure thermal conductivity and coefficient of thermal expansion. It is expectedthat, Aluminium-Silicon Carbide-Graphite hybrid composites can be used as load bearing material for the aboveapplications. In this paper, a review about the said hybrid composites to investigate thermal properties forengineering applications have been discussed based on its technological relevance, applications and researchprospect.
