A functionally graded material is a high-performance engineering material that can withstand extreme working conditions without losing its properties or failing during operation. The design, fabrication, and characterization of Al-Ni integrated into single functionally graded materials are presented in this study. FGM (Al-Ni) have been successfully fabricated using the powder metallurgy process. FGMs samples are made up of five layers, starting with Al on one side and ending with Ni on the other. The FGM (Al-Ni) samples used in this research were made up of the following percentages: (100 Al, 25 Ni-75Al, 50Ni-50Al, 75Ni-25Al, and 100Ni) wt%. The samples were pressed with a load of 800 MPa and sintered at temperature 600°C for 3 hours. In this research we applied the wear test and X-ray analysis of FGM (Al-Ni) samples where the intermetallic phases that formed were (AlNi 3 , Al 0.9 Ni 1.1 , Ni 5 Al 3 , Al 3 Ni 2, Al 4 Ni 3 , AlNi,), in addition to optical microscopy images.
