Aluminum is a metal matrix material which is widely used in different industrial as well as engineering applications.it has a great advantage due to its remarkable properties like less density, formability, and light in weight, recyclability and other properties. but, failure of aluminum matrix materials are the main problems in aluminum industries now a days.in this review role of aluminum and its alloys as matrix materials, their failure modes, causes of failure and optimization techniques to minimize this failure modes and causes of failure are discussed. Sources are reviewed which are from 2005 to recent one. Consequently, most modes of failure, causes of failure and most optimization techniques of aluminum and its alloy matrix materials are found. most modes of failure are mechanical related like fatigue failure, surface cracking, ductile failure, porosity formation, and stress related like stress corrosion cracking, surface weakness due to repeated stresses and other factors are summarized.in causes of failure mostly like corrosion formation, wear formation and poor mechanical properties are discussed.
