The paper studies the microstructure of aluminum matrix composites with an Al-Cu-Mg granulated alloy used as a matrix and SiC particles in the amounts of 5, 10, 20 and 30 vol% used as a filler. The micromechanical properties of the composites are determined by kinetic indentation, as well as the values of the temperature coefficients of linear expansion and density.
