Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0340957A2] In producing a metal base composite material by first producing a porous preform (10) from a reinforcing material such as short fibers, whisker, particles or mixtures thereof, and secondly infiltrating a molten matrix metal into the interstices of the porous preform, fine pieces of a third material having good affinity to the molten matrix metal are mixed in the porous preform in the process of producing the preform, and at least a part of the preform is contacted with a molten mass of the matrix metal so that the molten matrix metal infiltrates into the interstices of the porous preform with no substantial pressure being applied thereto.
