The article considers a new approach to the synthesis of metal composites based on the structuring of an aluminum matrix with titanium carbide nanostructures. A method is developed for the uniform introduction of a metal- ceramic-metal reinforcing additive into the bulk aluminum-based composite (Al-TiC-Fe). As a result, a composite with improved mechanical properties was obtained, where ceramic nanoparticles are evenly distributed in the bulk metal matrix. The ways of adjustment of the mechanical characteristics of composites using aluminum matrix structuring with carbide nanostructures are shown.
