Metal Matrix Composites - Beryllium Containing

Metal Matrix Composites - Beryllium Containing

To meet the growing needs in the aerospace and commercial markets for materials that provide higher strength, lower weight and outstanding thermal management, Materion Brush Beryllium & Composites has developed two families of beryllium metal matrix composites: AlBeMet®, and E-Materials.

These metal matrix composites offer designers a superior combination of:

  • Mechanical
  • Physical
  • Thermal properties

Metal matrix composites are a material in which a continuous metallic phase (the matrix) is combined with another phase (the reinforcement) to strengthen the metal while increasing high-temperature stability.

AlBeMet®

Brush Beryllium & Composites’ AlBeMet® is an aluminum-beryllium composite that combines the toughness, ductility and machinability of aluminum with all the unique properties of beryllium.

E-Materials

E-Materials are high-performance, metal matrix composites that have tailorable thermal, physical and mechanical properties. E-Materials are ideally suited for electronic packaging applications.
