Abstract

Nowadays, it has been clear an increasing interest in designing materials that can fulfill the needs for high performance in specific applications. Therefore, many researchres have been attracted to study the synthesis of composite materials due to their unique properties and potential uses. In that field it is well known the particular interest in the nano-composites, specially because they may possess a stable microstructure with good resistance to recrystalization and grain growth. In contrast to hardening by precipitation mechanism, some physical and mechanical properties can be kept, even at high temperature, due to the stability and high melting point of particles such as those of Al2O3, which do not react with the metallic matrix constituted by, for example, copper and/or nickel.
