Application of DRA in the metal matrix composite electronic package flourish in space applications. Potential applications of the reinforcing material SiCp / Al whiskers SiCw / Al comprises a truss structure, stringers, electronic packaging, thermal plane, the mechanical housing and bushing joints and accessories (Rawal, 2001). DRA composite material has the following advantages: high thermal conductivity, customizable CTE and low density, which provides a major advantage (Rawal, 2001) for the electronic packaging and thermal management applications. These components were much to manufacture than previous light metal alloy components, and by producing the mesh may further significant cost savings. DRA is currently used for communications satellites in geosynchronous earth orbit spacecraft thermal management of the power semiconductor module, so that a higher density and a lower thermal conductivity instead of the Cu / W alloy (Rawal, 2001). Compared with the copper / tungsten, reduced material weight DRA than 80% (Rawal, 2001).
