Currently applied methods of producing dispersion-strengthened aluminium-based composite materials, reinforced with silicon carbide particles, are presented. The main physico-chemical and mechanical characteristics of these materials are given, and the current methods of joining dispersion-strengthened aluminium-based materials, as well as the problems arising in solid- and liquid-phase welding of these materials, are considered in detail.
Keywords: composite material, welding, aluminium matrix, reinforcer, particle, silicon carbide, aluminium carbide, decomposition, structure, composition, strength
