The kinetic spray method has been used to fabricate aluminum metal matrix composites for thermal management applications. This approach offers a simple means of coating planar surfaces with various types of metal/metal and metal/ceramic composites, the thermal properties of which can be tailored by appropriate control of material and mixing parameters.
