Successful metallurgical design of metal-matrix-composites relies on the knowledge intrinsic property profiles metal matrix and especially compounds employed for particles, whiskers or fibres. In this work we compiled key properties melting point, bulk modulus, shear Young׳s density, hardness, Poisson׳s ratio structure/space group from widespread literature data most relevant compound types, i.e. borides, carbo-borides, carbides, oxides, nitrides intermetallic phases.
