• Reinforcement particles

The increasing need for materials with light weight, high resistance to corrosion and wear, toughness and strength, machinability, high thermal capacity etc. for various applications is unending. This demand has continued to stretch the exploitation and manipulation of various functionally graded materials (FGMs) and their production methods. This study explores one of the FGM production processes called the centrifugal casting technique (CCT). The centrifugal casting process has several potential advantages over traditional casting methods. This study provides information regarding the basic functionally graded production methods and their applications and also discusses categories of CCT, evolution and process parameters.
