In-Situ matrix composite can more be expensive than other materials. It is less cost-effective for certain applications. Situ matrix composite knows the high strength-to-weight ratio. It may be prone to cracking, delimitation, or other forms of damage over time. Situ matrix composite can be more difficult in process than other materials. It is requiring for specialized requirements and expertise in the situ matrix composite. This can make it more challenging and more consuming to manufacture products using these materials. Overall, the site matrix composite typically out weights the potential side effects for many applications. High-cost situ matrix composite can be more expensive to produce than traditional materials due to the complexity of the manufacturing process and the need for specialized equipment. The manufacturing process for the situ matrix composites can be complex and difficult to control, leading to variations in the material properties. Limited design flexibility for the situ matrix composites is typically made in specific shapes. This is why, which can limit their design flexibility compared to other materials that can be easily molded or formed.
